After the Bruins confirmed that he was day-to-day with an upper-body injury, we have a new update to report.
Jim Montgomery provided an update on Brad Marchand: "He's upper body, day to day."
In today's press conference, Montgomery confirmed the worst for Marchand: he won't be in the line up for the next game, set to go down on Sunday evening.
"Per Montgomery, #NHLBruins Brad Marchand is out tonight."

More to come.
