Brad Marchand Targets Six-Week Return to Panthers Following Knee Injury

Florida Panthers forward Brad Marchand expressed relief Thursday as he continues rehabbing a left knee injury suffered in early October after crashing into a goal post. After initially fearing the injury could be season- or career-ending, the 38-year-old is now hopeful to return within six weeks, if not sooner. Marchand, who helped Florida win two straight Stanley Cups and has four years on his contract, is currently on-ice rehabbing alongside Aleksander Barkov.
