Marchand admits he has to clean up his act: 'I need to cut that s--- out'

Boston Bruins forward Brad Marchand is quickly developing a reputation as one of the most polarizing players in the NHL.

And after a playoff run that included him licking or trying to kiss multiple players, which led to a warning from the NHL and his team, Marchand is getting the message.

"I need to cut that (expletive) out," Marchand said during locker clean out Wednesday, according to Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic.

Marchand and the Bruins had their season ended by the Tampa Bay Lightning on Sunday, giving the diminutive winger plenty of time to mull over his on-ice antics.
