Default Brad Marchand Forever a Flame

It may be weird to nominate someone for the Forever a Flame who never played for Calgary. His efforts in defeating both the Canucks and Oilers in the finals require some acknowledgement.

Thank you Brad for all your efforts and congratulations on your second Stanley Cup.

Hahaha agreed thank you Bradley!

Also while we’re at it, we should thank the Oilers goaltending circus they have over there. Thank god they never go out and get an actual legit number 1 goalie who can stop pucks consistently lol

Arena statue of him turning Walman inside out. Iconic.

A couple dozen yards from Gaudreau doing his super saiyan goal celebration.

Who would have predicted this photo 10 years ago?

https://twitter.com/user/status/1935202017598726306

And for those who don't get the easter egg/joke dropped by Luongo, the tattoo artist who worked on Marchand way back botched the spelling of "champions". Lou does not miss!

Spoiler!

Gained some new found respect for Marchand during the final. He’s awesome.

Would seriously be pumped if the flames signed him. The Oilers assassin

Petition to sign him to a 1 year, high $’s deal? We can flip him to Florida if we aren’t playoff bound/comfortably in a playoff spot at the TDL.

Can't forget the role he played in the 4 nations series a few months back to defeat team MAGA. Have always liked Marchand and his antics since the day he entered the league.

Might go down in history as the best pest ever. His playoff stat-line is insane.
