Tonight, former Bruins captain Brad Marchand ended up hitting a massive milestone with the Florida Panthers that he should have hit with the Boston Bruins.
Entering tonight, Brad Marchand was sitting on 998 career NHL points.
The former Bruins captain ended up picking up two assists in the Panthers' 6-3 win over the Washington Capitals, in which he ended up hitting the 1,000 career points mark.
It only took Marchand 1,116 games for him to hit the 1,000-point mark.
1,000 points in 1,116 games for Brad Marchand. 👏
What a player.
What a player.
This is the play where Brad Marchand ended up getting his 1,000th point, and the Florida Panthers bench cleared to celebrate this milestone with Marchand:
1,000 CAREER POINTS FOR BRAD MARCHAND AND THE BENCH CLEARS 👏
Marchand should have hit 1,000 points with the Bruins
Last year during the NHL trade deadline, the Bruins decided to make some big, unexpected changes.
One of those changes was trading captain Brad Marchand to the Florida Panthers. The reason he was traded was due to the two sides not being able to agree on a contract.
Don Sweeney did not want to give Marchand a contract longer than three years, and Marchand wanted a longer-term contract.
With everything Marchand has done for the Bruins organization, Sweeney should have given his captain whatever he wanted to keep him a Bruin for his entire career.
Do you think trading Brad Marchand to the Florida Panthers was a big mistake by Don Sweeney?
