Brad Marchand has been working the keyboard a little more than usual as of late, and it's been a treat to watch it all unfold.
Recently, he's dug himself deep into the heads of Edmonton Oilers fans - or one at least - after his dig at the city being a potential host of the 2025 All-Star Game.
Since then, one Oilers fan in particular by the handle @OilerAnalytics has not stopped coming at Marchand on Twitter. However, it hasn't quite worked the way he thought it would, as fans have flooded him with hilarious replies.
This sets up perfectly for the Bruins and Oilers first matchup of the season on Monday night in Edmonton. Followed by a second game in 11 days back at TD Garden in Boston on March 9th.
All jokes aside, neither team will care about what's happening on social media. Marchand was messing with people as he does on a daily basis, and both teams are playing good hockey right now.
RECORDS SINCE JANUARY 1st
BOS: 15-4-1 (.775 P%)
