Neal has been a huge disappointment. Perimeter player.

Amazing how well he's come back from that concussion he had. Just shows how hard work can pay off.

Crosby loves those 'hope and a prayer' blind backhand passes

Neither team playing all that well. You've gotta think the next goal wins.

Shows why the league should take head injuries way more seriously and increase suspension length.

If he hadn't been fortunate to come back the way he has, we'd all be missing out on watching him play. Meanwhile, the guy who hit him's name is a fart in the wind.

It's just so sad watching him play these days. The guy used to be such a dominant force whenever he was on the ice. He just doesn't seem all that engaged in the play anymore. It's weird.
It'll be interesting to see if he re-signs with the Pens or decides to test the FA waters.

Heck maybe Marchand should get some consideration for Team Canada. I know everyone on here hates him, but we'd love him if he played for the Flames.

I don't remember the last time a pest player was this good of a scorer as well. Maybe Esa Tikkanen, Ken Linsesman, or Pat Verbeek.

I am so happy he plays out East though so we don't have to play him multiple times every year.

Ciccarelli?

Marchand is clutch, too. Can't teach that.

I would have really mixed feelings. Love his compete, but damn the cheap antics and dirty plays...

And like most little ####'s like him he has that face you'd just want to punch.

Effective player.

I like Marchand because he's amazing at what he does. He's a complete a-hole and he pisses ME off watching him, let alone what the players on the opposing team think of him.

With that said, I can't see his antics going over well internationally, but boy would it ever give the Canadians an edge if he did make the roster.

If Marchand is the best pest in the east, who's the best pest out west?

Is Marchand a bit like Fleury? Is what what we're identifying with?

Nowhere near as talented as Fleury but similar demeanor on the ice.

Should really stop putting out the slow guys (Morrow, Iginla, Murray). What a mistake it was bringing in a bunch of slower guys on their last legs.
