I'm not saying that Brad Marchand bursting into flames would have been a possibility or a pleasure, but I am saying a huge opportunity to spritz him with holy water as a precaution was missed on Saturday night. With the Department of Player Safety looking out for the well-being of players more than ever, it required negligence of the highest order for them not to send a representative to Boston to sit rink-side armed with a Bible and a crucifix. At the very least, it could have potentially saved them a hell of a lot of headaches in the future if, however unlikely, the Devil's cover as a rat-nosed prick of a really good hockey player was finally blown. I'm not even particularly religious, but seeing as those that are tend to obsessed with signs, I find it a bit odd that the hockey world just laughed off the most satanic of symbolism like it was nothing more than a mere coincidence. Even if the mark of the beast making multiple appearances wasn't enough to spark your suspicion, the way Brad Marchand's 666th game diabolically played out certainly should. Scoring the only goal mere minutes in. Starting and finishing said game with 666 penalty minutes despite injuring someone with a blindside crosscheck directly in front of a referee...
If Lucifer himself wasn't responsible for maintaining such inherently evil statistics then the on-ice officials sure need an optometrist. I was already skeptical of the unholiness that was Marcus Johansson swallowing his pride and selling his soul in teaming up with someone who cost him millions of dollars in free agency with an elbow from hell, never mind the least inconspicuous scumbag in hockey getting away with another cheap shot in ending up the hate-fueled hero in a win over the Devils. I don't know that Brad Marchand is the actual Prince Of Darkness, but I do know that letting him leave the building without even attempting an exorcism was about as safe as his style of play, with just about every aspect of the night pointing to him as the antichrist arisen.
