Brad Marchand’s future: Former Bruins winger Brad Marchand is currently playing in the Stanley Cup Final, though as a member of the Florida Panthers. Marchand, 37, was traded to Florida in March for a compensation draft pick (which will reportedly now be a first-rounder thanks to playoff-related conditions of the deal being met).
Marchand scored in Game 1, though the Panthers lost to the Oilers in overtime. Prior to the game, he sat down with Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman for an interview about his time in Florida, and his future. For the first time in his career, Marchand is set to become an unrestricted free agent following the end of the season.
