Marchand, known for pushing the boundaries on the ice, has a reputation for drawing penalties through embellishment and agitating opponents.
Fans are pointing out that Marchand's jersey sleeves do not extend down to his gloves, which is a requirement according to the NHL rulebook. Photos circulating online show instances where Marchand's wrists are exposed, potentially violating the rule.
Bruins fans argue that the evidence is inconclusive, as Marchand's sleeves may have pulled up while he raised his hands. However, observations from other points in the series support the claim, with even Leafs coach Sheldon Keefe acknowledging Marchand's skill at drawing penalties.
While some fans hope for NHL enforcement, it's unlikely the league will take action. Any ruling against Marchand would likely result in a warning rather than immediate punishment. As the Leafs aim to extend the series in Game 5, attention remains on Marchand's actions and whether they cross the line according to NHL regulations.
