Brad Marchand was clearly not at his best in the Bruins’ 6-5 shootout loss to the Ottawa Senators on Saturday. He had trouble handling the puck most of the afternoon and was slow to close on Josh Norris before the Senator scored the tying goal with 12 seconds left in regulation.

Brad Marchand is one of, if not the most clutch players in Boston Bruins history, as the franchise’s all-time leader in overtime goals. The Bruins certainly could’ve used one on Saturday against the Ottawa Senators.

Earlier in the year, Jim Montgomery demonstratively yelled at him on the bench and even shoved him on the bench after a bad turnover. Afterward, Marchand downplayed the exchange and even agreed with Montgomery’s handling of it.
