Bruins' Marchand Blasts Oilers' McDavid, Draisaitl

McDavid, Draisaitl Respond

Marchand under fire for comments on Oilers' stars

Boston Bruins captain Brad Marchand is under fire for comments he made about Edmonton Oilers stars Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. During a recent interview, Marchand said that McDavid and Draisaitl are "not as good as people think they are." He also said that the Oilers are "a one-line team" and that they "would be nothing without McDavid and Draisaitl." Marchand's comments have drawn a strong reaction from the Oilers and their fans. McDavid and Draisaitl have both responded to Marchand's comments, saying that they are "disrespectful" and "uninformed." "I think it's pretty clear that Brad Marchand doesn't know what he's talking about," said McDavid. "We're a good team with a lot of depth, and we're not going to let one guy's comments get us down." "I'm not going to get into a war of words with Brad Marchand," said Draisaitl. "But I will say that I'm proud of the team we have in Edmonton, and I think we're capable of great things." The Oilers are currently in third place in the Pacific Division, and they are in contention for a playoff spot. Marchand's comments are sure to add fuel to the fire when the Bruins and Oilers meet next on March 23.
