Brad Marchand Returns to Action Wednesday vs. Bruins After Two-Game Absence

Florida Panthers forward Brad Marchand (undisclosed) is now slated to play Wednesday against the Bruins, contrary to an earlier report stating he would miss his third consecutive game. Marchand was a surprise participant in warmups, taking his regular turn on the third line, which means Jesper Boqvist will exit the lineup. The 37-year-old veteran, who has recorded 25 goals and 50 points in 45 outings this campaign, had four points over four games between a pair of injury absences before this recent two-game stint on the shelf. He is expected to quickly regain momentum.
