Simmonds had some harsh words to say about Brad Marchand
Simmonds and Marchand have a love hate relationship.
This is what Wayne had to say about the Rat:
"Marchy is...I've known him for a long time and we played the World Juniors together back in '08, so I have a little bit of a relationship with him," Simmonds said before chuckling.
"I could say some things, but it wouldn't be child-friendly," he said to laughter from media members. "Yeah, he's a great competitor out there and he'll do anything it takes to win. You have to respect that as an opponent, but at the same time, you can use it against him a little bit. He's an unbelievable player, one of the best in the League, and he chips in more than points wise for his team."
"There's no friends on the ice, ever."

It's looking like the Maple Leafs want to face Boston in the playoffs. Tonight's Leafs lineup may look something like this:
Mikheyev - Nylander - Kerfoot
Engavll - Kampf - Blackwell
Clifford - Spezza - Simmonds
Abruzzese, Anderson
Rielly - Lyubushkin
Muzzin - Brodie
Giordano - Liljegren
Holl
Kallgren starts

If Boston wins and Tampa loses we have a Boston-Leafs series.
