Brad Marchand has drawn criticism after mocking Tim Stutzle amid Ottawa Senators' search for its next captain. The Florida Panthers forward responded to an Instagram post naming Stutzle, Thomas Chabot, and Jake Sanderson as finalists.
A hockey page named "Puck Empire" shared a post in which they wrote, "The Ottawa Senators are reportedly 'closing in on a decision on who is going to replace Brady Tkachuk.'"
Marchand responded in the comment section and wrote, "Hahahah …..Stutzle….hahaha," dismissing the idea of Stutzle wearing Ottawa's captaincy. The comment soon drew attention and has now led to a debate over whether Marchand crossed a line.

Speaking on The Sid Seixeiro Show, Seixeiro called the remark "highly disrespectful stuff." He also questioned whether Marchand's history as an agitator made the comment more significant heading into the season.
