Brad Marchand, the former captain of the Boston Bruins, got traded to the Florida Panthers recently, disappointing many fans. While the NHL star has proved his worth on the ice constantly, a recent video of his from the match between the Florida Panthers and the Ottawa Senators has gone viral, and fans are a bit confused about it.

Did Brad Marchand just call an Ottawa Senators’ player “fat”? Fans are confused about it but also furious at the NHL star



Recently, at the match between the Florida Panthers and the Ottawa Senators, the Panthers faced a devastating loss, which marked their 4th consecutive loss.
But it is the viral video of Brad Marchand’s which has fans talking. The video shows Brad Marchand saying, "You're so f**king fat", to a Ottawa Senators’ player at the end of the game.

But fans are confused if Brad Marchand called the Senators’ player “fat” or a “fag”.
A fan posted on X, “Clearly said "such a f*cking f@g". Disgusting behavior”, while another fan wrote, “Definitely did not say fat. A different 3 letter word that starts with fa”.
A third fan wrote, “Yeah, he didn’t say fat”, while another fan posted, “he said f@g, not fat, and f**k him wholeheartedly tbh”.

However, fans are furious at the way Brad Marchand behaved in the viral video. A fan wrote, “Just another NHL player I’ve hated for years that are still proving why I’m justified”, while another fan posted, “Pretty sure he didn’t say “fat” And if he said what he it looks like said, it solidifies every bad thing I’ve ever said about him 🐀”
Brad Marchand has not issued a statement yet to clear the speculations around the viral video.
Even though the Florida Panthers faced a devastating loss against the Ottawa Senators and are on a losing streak, the team has been able to successfully enter into the playoffs.
Currently, apart from Florida Panthers, from the Eastern Conference, four other teams have made it to the playoffs. This includes Carolina Hurricanes, Toronto Maple Leafs, Washington Capitals and Tampa Bay Lightning.
Fans are hoping the Florida Panthers have a succesful season like last time.
