Brad Marchand wasn't in the mood to talk after his Boston Bruins eliminated the Columbus Blue Jackets on Monday night.
The Bruins forward gave a slew of brief responses in a postgame scrum.
The succinct session with reporters followed an equally terse on-ice exchange with Sportsnet's Kyle Bukauskas shortly after the game ended.
During the warmup before Game 2 of the series, Marchand skated away from Bukauskas after the reporter asked him, presumably in jest, if he managed to get his skate resharpened "after Thursday."
That was a reference to Marchand stomping on Blue Jackets forward Cam Atkinson's stick and breaking it in Game 1, as well as the ensuing war of words between the two players.
