VA Hero Of The Week | Brad Marchand Named NHL First Star Of The Week

A stick to the face is not slowing down Marchand

Boston Bruins winger Brad Marchand was named the NHL’s first star of the week for leading the league in goals and points across four games. For that reason, we’re naming him our VA Hero of the Week.

The 33-year-old netted his fifth career hat trick Jan. 12 in the Bruins win over the Montreal Canadiens at TD Garden.
