Brad Marchand had an unfortunate turn of fate after Florida Panthers forward Sam Bennet made a nasty hit to the player's head. While Marchand had to take time off the ice for concussion protocol, Bennet got to continue playing without any obvious consequences.
Fortunately for the Bruins, it looks like, after two consecutive missed games, they can expect to have their captain back. According to his mother, Lynn Marchand, the Boston left-winger is pumped to get back on the ice and try to tie the series.
The Bruins will aim to tie up the series and force a game 7 against Florida tonight at TD Garden. With Brad Marchand expected back on the ice, hopefully, Boston can give the Panthers all they have.
