Brad Marchand is ready for another opportunity to represent his country. The 36-year-old from Halifax, Nova Scotia was one of the first six players named to team Canada's 4 Nations Face-Off roster. The other five Canadians named were Sidney Crosby, Connor McDavid, Nathan MacKinnon, Cale Makar, and Brayden Point. Elite company for Marchand to be classified among.
The Bruins winger was a major catalyst in Canada winning the World Cup of Hockey back in 2016.
