Brad Marchand just sent a clear message to the Bruins' general manager, Don Sweeney, regarding his return to Boston, and it's shocking.

The Boston Bruins' former 16-year veteran and captain, Brad Marchand, who was traded during the NHL Trade Deadline to the Florida Panthers is currently going viral during his celebration with his new teammates, as the organization just won the Stanley Cup Finals.
The former Bruins captain has been the hottest talk of the hockey world since being dealt to the Panthers on March 7, and with his recent antics while celebrating his Stanley Cup victory with his teammates, he is only becoming more popuular and liked by many who were once not a fan of him.
At 37 years of age, Marchand is still partying as though he's in his 20's, and it appears his celebration with the Panthers will never end, and the same case for his longevity in Florida, as the veteran just discolsed his honest thoughts on playing for the Panthers next season.
Many Bruins fans became hopeful of a return to Boston, especially after securing his second Stanley Cup, what better way to end your last few seasons of your career in the city where it all started?
That was until Marchand let out an unfiltered comment while parting with his Panthers teammates on Friday night.
"Give me a contract"

-Brad Marchand

This all but confirms that he will be a Florida Panther next season, with his clear message to general manager Bill Zito, confirming his interest with the club moving forward.
Marchand himself seemed uncertain as to where he would end up in free agency, some speculating that he will fetch the top dollar to another contending team, but it appears his relationship with his current teammates has grown during this celebration, and he may be willing to take a pay cut to stay with the organization.
Another bad look on Bruins GM Don Sweeney, as it appears he let one of his most loyal players get away.
