BOSTON -- Andrew Ference has his own favorite nickname for Bruins pest Brad Marchand after hearing teammates call him rat, squirrel and weasel among other names from the animal kingdom.
Needless to say they are all complimentary with his nickname choice denoting the most fearless animal in the world ready to attack lions and cobras among other animals despite being smaller in stature and physical strength.
“Everybody is calling him a weasel, but I call him a Honey Badger,” said Ference. “Have you seen it on YouTube? Go ahead and type in Honey Badger on YouTube and tell me what you think.”
Check here for a look at the impressive work of the Honey Badger, which is a pretty on the money call by Ference.
