Boston Bruins left winger Brad Marchand recently took center stage in a fresh Twitter controversy. Following the NHL altercation on Sunday between Anaheim Ducks Trevor Zegras and Arizona Coyotes Troy Stecher, the Bruins left winger entered the fray next.
It all started with Marchand’s tweet response to Craig Morgan, an Arizona Coyotes insider who attempted to clear up the argument between Trevor Zegras and Troy Stecher on Sunday.
However, things seemed to escalate when the Bruins left winger responded with “Shut Your Pie Hole Craig” to Coyotes’ insider Craig Morgan.
“I can confirm via the Coyotes that Anahiem forward Trevor Zegras did not say anything about Troy Stecher’s father during their dust-up last night but, per a team source, he crossed the line with “some very inappropriate comments. Strecher has declined comment on the topic.”[email protected] via Twitter
Here’s Brad Marchand’s tweet that feuded up the controversy:

Following, a hilarious reply from the Bruins winger, here’s what he said:
“@JLStoller I’m sorry you didn’t like my answer Jacob, would you like me to say something different so you don’t have something so stupid to hang your career on? Great reporting this am!! “- @Bmarch63 – Twitter
