NHL insider Paul Bissonnette quickly reacted to Nikita Grebenkin’s comment after the Toronto Maple Leafs’ 4-1 win over the Chicago Blackhawks. Grebenkin, a 21-year-old rookie, had knocked Blackhawks defenseman Wyatt Kaiser to the ice in the final seconds of the game.
When asked about it, Grebenkin said:
"I play. You play. Don't stop. Don't relax. You play NHL, you understand. I kill you. You kill me. It's business. No problem.”
Bissonnette, known for his lighthearted commentary, shared a simple three-word response on X (formerly Twitter):
“Russian Quote Machine,” with a smile emoji.
His comment pointed out how blunt and confident Nikita Grebenkin was in explaining his physical play.
