Watch Game 7 Canucks vs. Bruins Live Online

Watch live Canucks vs. Bruins game 7 online, Wednesday, Jun. 15, 2011. Even if you’re Marchand, a 23-year-old rookie, a 5-foot-9 ball of energy for the Boston Bruins.

“Every day,” Marchand said. Wednesday in Vancouver. Marchand is a big reason the Bruins have this opportunity. He was at his best – and the Canucks might say, worst – Monday night in Game 6 with the Bruins facing elimination on home ice at the TD Garden.

That also sparked a flurry of four goals in 4:14, a Cup final record. The Bruins went on to win 5-2.

“The shot he took was an extremely accurate and hard shot from an off wing, and that’s the caliber of a Brad Marchand shot,” Bruins coach Claude Julien said. Well, maybe as a Bruins coach. In one sequence at the end of Game 4, he clotheslined defenseman Christian Ehrhoff(notes) in the corner. He submarined winger Daniel Sedin(notes), sending him flying into the end boards. He dropped the gloves as defenseman Keith Ballard(notes) came after him. Sedin chose to take the abuse.

Sedin ended up screaming at a referee, who made a call all right – two minutes roughing and a 10-minute misconduct for Marchand and a 10-minute misconduct for Sedin.

Sedin said. I would rather have a kid like that than a kid that plays with no emotion. It’s a big part of his game, and he’s learning.”

It’s what makes Marchand who he is. A third-round draft pick in 2006, he had zero goals and one assist in 20 games for the Bruins last season. But he had enough spunk to tell Julien he would score 20 goals for the Bruins this season.

Marchand made the team, but he was pegged as a fourth-line guy. Marchand finished with 21 goals, 41 points and a plus-25 rating. (Not sure if he wiped his hands afterward.)

One game left. The Bruins need a hero. Marc Savard(notes) is out with a concussion. So is Nathan Horton(notes), who scored the Game 7 winners in the first and third rounds. The Bruins have scored in buckets and won all three games at home in this series, but they’ve struggled to score and lost all three games on the road – Marchand included. Four points in Boston, zero in Vancouver.

“It’s obviously a tough grind on the mind and body,” Marchand said. You’ve got all summer to recover.” Watch live Canucks vs. Bruins game 7 online.
