I just spent $1000 for 2 tickets to the winter classic at Fenway. I’m so bummed that the NHL is getting sucked into the woke culture.

@@Biffmaher - How is the NHL getting sucked into "the woke culture"? What about this has anything to do with "woke culture"?

@@Biffmaher why is being anti racism viewed as a negative by you lol

I don’t see how standing up for inclusion and diversity is bad. At all. Because the only justifications for being against these ideas are grounded in racism, xenophobia, etc. Bergeron spoke spot-on here

@@CS.94 well said, I think many who throw the “woke culture” thing around, don’t know what “woke” means

Joe Sakic may be an argument to your statement but you're not wrong, Bergeron is class act.

@@Maritimer Nah, Joe Sakic was a smug a-hole.

Bergeron is likely the best two way player the game has ever seen.

@@greysonG10 oh you know him? you guys friends or relatives?

@@SapperRJMorgan i can't argue against it, he's awesome. I wasn't sure he'd have this long of a career after he had those concussion issues early on. I'm glad he did, although he does work against my Leafs haha

Patrice has many rape cases against him. He was abusing 12 year old boys in Montreal so who is he to talk?

He's the epitome of a class act.

Hall of famer

The kid was 14 at the time. The the only reason this is even news is because the other kid was black. Switch the roles and no one cares.

Time for sweezy and sneely to Go..

@Mike Cooper it's only news is because the other kid was black. No one would care if the kid was white or both kids were black. It fits the liberal communist narrative. White evil black victim.

@Mike Cooper nah he's just a dude with little man syndrome

@Mike Cooper if you think anything Marchand has done compares to what that kid did you’re crazyyyyy

Yes - Patrice certainly was born with a silver hockey spoon in his mouth.. very different than a lot of other players who had to struggle to get there. The amount of support he's gotten over the course of his life and career? He doesn't really have a lot to complain about!

That’s such a lazy statement. Bergeron has earned everything he’s gotten. Hard work and determination,, the amount of charity he does is more work than you’ve done in your life. His stat line is also always up there especially at his age now and the injuries he’s battled.

@@TheFoolintherainn That's one of the most stupid things I've read recently.

@@lincolnmaceachern2410 seriously, the guys busted his ass his entire career he's didn't come into the league like Sidney or other top picks he's outworked and outhustled every center the Bs have had for nearly 20yrs ... totally off based comment not realistic at all

What's wrong with the statement? Why is it that one or another of us is correct - both can be true Anyone who becomes a professional athlete is going to work their butt off.. yet there's a big difference between Bergie and a lot of these other scrappers who didn't come from privilege, I happen to know cuz I've done a ton of fundraising to get top hockey players on the ice.. maybe you have no idea how much time and effort that takes. Hockey is an extremely dangerous sport - it's not like baseball where you can just grab someone else's glove or bat... equipment to keep kids safe is outrageously expensive. It keeps top talent from even being able to try. Brad marchand takes a lot of heat for how he had to fight his way into the NHL. I lived about 3- 4 hours north of where he grew up... Very different than Patrice. Tough working class people in a harsh climate right on the Bay of Fundy It's not an ignorant comment - have you lived in Canada? They have a caste system between City people and not. Prime minister is very arrogant toward country folk & Canucks But there's absolutely no reason both of our statements can't be true One of you could have astutely asserted- Evidently, Bergie had male role models showing him how to be a man - Obviously, Mitch Miller did not. It's like people talk about rich versus poor, it doesn't make a difference? Yet ask anybody who's been both rich and poor, It's much easier complaining when you're rich than when poor! I don't understand why you're attacking a true statement? I'm not attacking yours.

Nobody cares if you hate the bruins

Like their home jerseys and Pastrnak, but that is about it. Bergeron played against us for the Cup in 2013, apparently he had a broken rib. Painful enough to breathe, but Patrice played with a lot of heart. As far as Mitchell Miller goes, he ought to spend at least a little time with the kid he harassed to see what it's like to walk in that young man's shoes.

@@PageMarker1 why the fuck would that kid who was the victim want that POS anywhere near him and his family ever again? The only place id want him is behind iron bars or in a fuckin box. He's a pure POS what he did. That's not just a teen being a bully.

Agree im a Canucks fan too 2011 still hurts . Patrice is a class act. Bad move by Sweeney

@JS 😒

Yeah sorry - he'd be more inclined to start up the nordics again... They're trying to bring them back... He's never going to be a Hab!

@@TheFoolintherainn Andy Moog

ill be dammed!

I think he's more pissed that he has to answer these types of questions - it's not his job to scout and vet players although he's had major influence - he was the one that brought foligno in and people weren't too happy about that last year.

Pissed about that and the signing it would piss off anyone

​@@TheFoolintherainnthe kid was an absolute psychopath.... My cousin knew him briefly at North Dakota. Said he has zero empathy for anything and never blinked. The players at North Dakota HATED Miller.

@@nickpeterson1778 yeah he sounds like a hockey player. Patrice Bergeron was brought up in a nice home, privileged, son of a Canadian bureaucrat social worker. And it is often been said that all Patrice Bergeron did was sleep constantly in his youth hockey days. Lucky boy. Supportive family, didn't have to work for his gear, hockey career handed to him... That would be an unusual hockey player. I simply don't throw young people away in the trash And I've worked with social workers. I lived in Canada. I don't like them. They're the most pathetic injured victims that never were, and nothing but government bureaucrats. The Canadian government technically owns the children. Patrice's mother would be one of the people deciding whether a child gets assisted suicide... The government owns the children so they decide. I think I'd rather take my chances with Mitch, than Patrice Bergeron's mother. She hurts a lot more people than any hockey player could

I am a Bruins fan and Bergeron has been my idol for 20 years (so sad he is gone!!) but battling Toronto is always my favorite because of how talented your team is and it is such a fun rivalry. When it came to this decision by Bruins management, I hated it. They chose wrong, corrected it but that doesn't take the sting out and the bad taste. Bergeron standing up for what actually is important means so much to me, it's partly why I love him (his on-ice game was so classy too), but to hear a Leafs fan say the same reminds me of what is most important. You and I peacefully 'fight' each game day, but first and foremost, we both are humans and I love you Stranger! Your comment to this video meant a lot and I respect you for it.

Patrice is going nowhere........he is Boston

Plus the cap friendly deal. I don't think I've seen a more genuine and friendly person. We'd be here all night talking about his Selke's 😂 great comment

I think he knew Mitch hadn't tried to learn. I got more info from him than Sweeney

Makes me reflect back to school days and how many jocks were bullies .. me thinks a good chunk of the NHL players did bully type things themselves once upon a time.

It's a leaked juvenile record that was supposed to be sealed - we're never going to actually know the facts because the target's mother can come out and say anything she wants, but by law he cannot cite any facts of the case to defend himself He has a pretty major lawsuit against both the NHL and that mother - but I'm guessing he's not going to go near it. And at this point, with the reputation that he's been given? Even if he makes a team in Europe those players are going to beat the tar out of him I'm so sorry that hockey is over for this kid - there's too many teen boys struggling with similar issues, who don't get out of bed unless they have hockey. What's even more disturbing is that juvenile records are absolutely sealed when these boys go after their parents - there's so many teen boys beating up their single mothers, but you're never going to know that statistic because they're keeping those records sealed

No. Once you end someone's life, you're still a murderer. Deal with it.

@@JaneNayes no one ended anyone's life - this has gotten ridiculous! You have no facts - they were friends growing up off and on, they lived near each other. There's no contact order - he couldn't have direct contact with isaiah, they started after they were adults. Mitch congratulated Isaiah on his daughter's birth. You just another victim of clickbait, woke crowd - I'm betting your white and you don't play hockey. I've experienced racism - it takes of food out of our mouths, we lose our homes, jobs -bullies will find anything. He wasn't targeted because he was black. And mitch wasn't born knowing that language. Here's some facts that you're never going to dispute smarty pants- Mitch's agent is black. The judge was black 🤔 They didn't see it as racism. They saw it as a chance to rehab a kid It wasn't a lollipop, it was a push pop - and they tried to get two or three other kids to take it before they came across Isaiah Why are you acting as dumb as those kids? this is ridiculous I wonder what video footage could have been found on Monty? If the Bruins lose - are you going to blame his being an alcoholic and Don Sweeney hiring him? There's a general rule I've heard from Old folks forever - people born before the 1900s Be careful pointing your fingers out, cuz if you flip your hand over you might notice there's three pointing right back at you find out some facts- Look up the black magistrates ruling and what his black sports agent might be saying

@@JaneNayes the bullied kid is still alive… get the facts straight Jack

He handled it very professionally

@@NHLdaily He did. By saying he "was not necessarily green with it" said it all that he did not agree with the decision he is a man of integrity, Bruins management have no integrity for making this decision. Next they'll sign a rapist!

Are you sure you know what you're talking about? - or this is just your knee jerk bonehead reaction going along with the media? why don't you take 33 minutes out of your day to listen to Don Sweeney's press conference and then delete your comment out of embarrassment of your ignorance. Listen to what Don had to say about it and then eat your crow & shuddup!

Realistically, the only player on the roster that's ever been dirty is Marchand, and those days are behind him for the most part. So settle down hater,

@@greysonG10 Wrong! Every single Bruins player besides Bergeron is dirty, with Marchand being the worst offender! Absolutely NOBODY I know likes Marchand!

Why are you putting it on the bruins? The NHL already knew what the situation was, they didn't put him out of the NHL, they left him on the trading block. When the NHL leaves a draft pick on the trading block that tells a franchise they are a viable pick. They didn't toss him out the first time they found this out - they left him on the trading block You can't really get into vetting a player unless you sign them at entry level - you're basically buying the rights to vet them Juvenile records are supposed to be sealed - so when anything leaks out, you're not getting the full story I am curious... If Mitch were applying for a job at mcdonald's, would this mother go running to the McDonald's manager's office door to stop him from flipping burgers? I doubt it. As a matter of fact - she violated the court order of a juvenile record - she set herself up for a lawsuit As well as the NHL. Oh the things I could tell you about 12- 14-year-old boys that would make you cringe.

That should have happened immediately, if it was going to happen. Juvenile records are sealed - Mitch has one hell of a lawsuit and i would support it at this point. If this supposedly went on for years that means they're judging him on 10/11 year old behavior - how did the adults allow this to go on "for years"? Something doesn't smell right all around. But here comes the media, this could affect ticket sales... Everybody running hide! It's okay that the USA has the highest suicide rates of males 18 - 45 years old since the depression.. as long as the woke crowd is happy And we've got a new whipping post for bullying - a 10 year old kid 😄 Yeah - he was busy planning his Halloween costume to go trick or treating, writing his Christmas list to sit on Santa's lap - and plotting out how he was going to torture this other kid for his life... It was all his grand plan - he even talked to Santa Claus about it sitting on his lap 🙄

You are mistaken. He went to court for the most egregious incident and plead guilty because there was video evidence.

Yeah sealed juvenile record? - first of all he couldn't reach out to the family while they were minors because that would violate the conditions of his sentencing By law, he still can't point to any facts in the case - what the mother did technically violates the court order Why would any decent parent allow their children to take this type of abuse "for years"? As I've said another comments, when my kid was getting bullied and clobbered at public School? I took down firewood for heat, scrapped metal - did everything I needed to to come up with private school tuition to get him the hell out... I didn't sit there for years watching my kid take that abuse and then try to put through a lawsuit to cash in on it? Nobody cared about my kids skin color until 2012 - suddenly every teacher in the school every social worker was knocking at our door.. they're the ones pointing out race, nobody else gave a damn Who the hell would allow their child to take this level of abuse FOR YEARS?

I highly doubt someone like Bergeron was making mentally disabled kids eat tootsie rolls covered in his piss.

@@greysonG10 you're right it's probably worse 😆

That was back in the day where juvenile records were actually sealed! This kid might have some major lawsuits... He's probably wise enough not to go through with them. The woke crowd doesn't pick on people their own size - they're going after 10 - 12-year-old behavior.. never questioning the adults who allowed this to go on "FOR YEARS"? The couch potatoes who can't even bend over to lace up skates are satisfied now.. they're working on their next bowl of Doritos Of course Patrice should be the epitome of hockey - he grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth - he didn't have to struggle to pay for skates, ice time or gas money to get to practice? With all due respect to the man - I'd rather hear from a street fighter hockey player.. more typical, someone who didn't have it that good. I lived a few hours north of where Brad grew up - talk about tough area? Very different upbringing than Prince Patrice. The tricks of the trade he needed to use to get to the NHL would have him booted out of the league by now! We count on witnessing puberty on ice - 90 second explosions of energy... With all due respect to patrice, I would really rather hear from someone who's been in the trenches. Struggled Someone who didn't grow up having season tickets to the Nordiques

Why should Sweeney be fired? Now, be careful! before you answer that - why don't you take 30 minutes of your life to listen to his press conference instead of a two and a half minute clip coming from a player who grew up with a silver hockey spoon in his mouth? Bettman already said Miller was out. Did you bother to listen to Don Sweeney's press conference? Did you hear what he had to say? No - you didn't

Yeah no shit ! Slew footing people and giving sticks to the groin are not moves that a person with integrity does, and I'm quite sure if you had a mic on him without him knowing you would probably hear some similar comments 🙄 why do you think he gets people so upset they want to kill him ? 🤔

He's not responsible for Marchand.

Off the ice Marchand is similar to Bergeron in how he acts. On the ice different story

@@eager9997 he just knows he needs to hide it better off ice. Scumbag through and through

@@TheCokee47 yikes. Awful take. You clearly haven’t seen him do or say anything off the ice

@@eager9997 When you're such a piece of shit on the ice, THAT's who he truly is. Off the ice is the act and it clearly works. You don't get suspensions for elbowing (x2) , slew footing (x2 plus fines), spearing, lowbridging and clipping, not to mention his multiple licking/biting incidences while being a super nice guy. No amount of charity work outside of the NHL is going to change that.

Is Marchand a known bully outside the rink or just a regular rink rat?

Was you there charlie ?

What’s 63 going to do to Sweeney? Sexually Assault him?

Problem is 63 don't fight , he's a hit and run guy

Why does he have to go?

@@Biffmaher Because he supports racists?

He’s absolutely blows at being a gm anyway. The only reason they took this kid is because of his awful drafting. Look at the picks he’s wiffed on. He’s one of the worst in the league. Fact not opinion

He was convicted at 14 supposedly doing it for years.. so no, we're not going back to a 14-year-old's behavior - we're going back to an 10-12 year old's behavior! Between trick-or-treating and sitting on Santa's lap, he was attending KKK meetings! I think the mother should get parent of the Year award - for allowing her child to take this abuse FOR YEARS! A lot of foster parents have this phenomena illness called "munchauser by proxy syndrome".. I think someone should be looking into that with this woman They get attention from their children being abused and/or sick. They often set it up, allow it to happen. It's their currency. Who in the hell would allow a child to take this type of abuse "for years"? One of my kids was getting bullied and clobbered, I got him the hell out of the school... Skipped a lot of meals to do it, I didn't sit around waiting for social workers to save my kids education and look after his safety That would be the parent's job

@@TheFoolintherainn How many gangbangers play in the NFL and never left that life behind even though they are now multi millionaires? Sounds to me the kid was every bit a victim as the one he bullied but he plays hockey instead of football or basketball. Any reason those two sports get away with taking criminals into their leagues for a second chance but because this kid was white there's no room for personal growth? Kyrie is a racist piece of shit and promoted anti Jewish material on his social media. He loses his Nike deal but still gets to collect 40 million dollars from his Jewish owner. That man is willing to pay that garbage a salary to play basketball and there was no one calling for Kyrie to be tossed from the league. I see a whole lot of racism here and it isn't being directed at the ones who are crying about it all the time.

@@killachinchilla9445 oh I have a feeling if he were football player and Tom Brady picked him up? this concerned mother, who let this go on for years, would be hiring a lawyer to sue the pants off of Brady. Unfortunately, hockey is one of the poorest professional sports We're still not as woke as those sports, we're fighting it to not get there. I'm an ole Bobby Orr, Cheever's, Esposito, big bad bruins fan - I remember being amazed hearing two or three different languages spoken by teammates on the same team back in the late sixties early seventies By the eighties you could have a team of players speaking five different languages. We don't care where you came from or what your skin color was half and we wanted to see what you could do on the ice That's what matters in hockey Definitely the most inclusive sport on the planet Never saw that in any other sport, still don't But remember, these are internet people - not sports fans, certainly not athletes - they sit on couches, most of them can't see over their bellies to lace up skates And they're watching bruins games on their mama's cable account Don Sweeney came right out in the press conference and said he wasn't comfortable with this situation - after Arizona rescinded his contract, why didn't the NHL and Bettman pull him off the trading block then? I got one name for you that will reveal the hypocrisy of this entire NHL - George Parros, the head of the player safety committee He ended his career basically concussing himself, falling down in a fight -losing his balance, nobody hit him he was known as an enforcer his best statistics are his penalty minutes And he's the one bringing in over $32 million a year fining players?! Somehow I think the Bruins were set up to take the fall for this guy - there's no reason he should have been on the NHL trading block after Arizona His stats are phenomenal - of course someone was going to pick him up to play hockey - Like Brady & AB- they'd be a fool not to try. The kids hockey career is over - any team he plays on or against are going to bash him to the boards for the reputation he's been given for things he did when he was 10 years old I hope he moves to Timbuktu, some place where they don't have ice nor hockey so he can live in peace I have a feeling, if this disabled kid's mother doesn't get a payday out of the nhl? she will be following him to Timbuktu I'm going to politely ask you to never compare hockey to NBA nor NFL again.. don't take us that low I don't compare myself to cockroaches, they're not allowed in the same paragraph as Hockey. - thank you Just stand by your convictions - I was the idiot people were bashing when I stood up for Jake debruske, David backes and Krejci... Chara clearly wanted Cassidy gone - I supported that... And I knew ullmark was going to become top goalie in the nhl.. sabres fans told me, I was absolutely blown away by his highlights -but nobody listened. And here is Linus, after the massive disrespect he took last season I was also a wannabe goalie skills coach, so I saw what goalie Bob was going to coach. And I stood by linus, even though I'm in the 49th with the Sway-man. Ullmark has been carrying the bruins since he first came in. NHL just announced last week that he has been number one goalie in the NHL since November 2021 And bruins fans are still not getting it!? So you got to have a spine to be a fan of this sport. Go B's!

Marchand has never done anything questionable off the ice.

Oh my God these fans really need to get an education - you can't vet a player until you sign them in an entry level - then you get to open their file and figure out who they are After he was already dropped by one team, why did Bettman and the NHL allow him to go back on the trading block? Then turn around and demonize the bruins for reaching out to a struggling player? How many rapists are currently playing in the nba? Let's see.. there was a really famous one named Kobe Bryant who is now a hero?

@Evan 🍕🐬 Nor did I say it was.

Gordie Howe was of the highest character...and one of the most vicious players in NHL history

Marchand is by all accounts a stand up dude off the ice.

Lol what?

marchand is a jerk not a piece of shit

Exactly

😂

Find out where Brad marchand grew up playing hockey - he didn't have a silver spoon in his mouth nor season tickets to the nordiques That was also the day where juvenile records are sealed - but you might notice that Brad is being suspended based on reputation these days and he's still paying for it.. read George perros reports and suspensions on March on - if you know how to read you'll see the word "reputation" on each and every report as the reason why he was fined and suspended Nobody ever goes to the source to read anything themselves - you all have to have it filtered through a media wig? For profit media?

They didn't sign him for anything - you have to bring in a player an entry level contract in order to vet them They put it out across the team to have the conversation They had the conversation as a team and they made the decision as a team I'm guessing burgie is more annoyed with the fact that there are microphones in his face asking him about this issue instead of the game of hockey.. it's not his job to scout nor vet players What's interesting is he brought foligno in - he's the one that wanted nick ... People were pissed at him last season for his lack of performance, but they didn't connect the dots to know that it was Patrice bergeron who pushed to bring him into the bruins organization. Y'all didn't blame him for foligno last season?

Marchand acts like a dick against grown men, atleast hes not bullying mentally handicapped people xdd.

I believe people can change, but this kid was bullying this other, learning delayed person, for YEARS (allegedly) and up until a couple years ago. That's not just learned behaviors. That may be taught.

He's a racist piece of shit who continued to torment that kid for at least 2 years after the court case and refuses to apologize. Bastard should not be anywhere near a pro contract.

Ah yes, the real diversity is allowing bullies and people who use racial slurs on their team. Excellent for team building.

@@fananon1039, sick point!! I didn’t know this was something he still does and does it around teammates past and present!!

I bumped into him about 10 years ago and he seemed like a great guy but there will always be that time he called me a honky. Maybe I’ll go after him!!

Hockey community used to be a family until the internet came along we were fans of the sport, top players - but our colors didn't run I hate what's happened to hockey since the internet.. it was the last pure sport
