Brad Marchand was appearing in his first game with the Boston Bruins after undergoing three surgeries in the off-season. Today he finally got cleared to play in a game, but it didn't last long.
Marchand ended up missing a shift in the first period, but did take another after that.
The Boston Bruins lead 1-0 to end the first period, but to start the second period Brad Marchand was not on the bench for the Boston Bruins.
The Boston Bruins would then release a statement on social stating that Brad Marchand more then likely will not be returning to the game tonight.
Thankfully it is not due to an injury, but just an illness for the Boston Bruins captain.
