Brad Marchand is making his debut with the Florida Panthers following a trade from the Boston Bruins. Despite missing early games due to an injury, he is projected to strengthen Florida's second line. Notably, this marks the first time he will play without ever donning a Bruins jersey in over 1,000 NHL games. Panthers coach Paul Maurice emphasizes Marchand's wealth of experience and skill will be key for their playoff aspirations. Additionally, teammates like Sam Bennett express excitement about Marchand's contribution to the team.
"It's been a lot of fun. He's such a good player. So silky. I feel like when he has the puck, he sees you - he's got eyes in the back of his head."
"He's had an incredible career. He's a Stanley Cup champion, 1,000 games, 1,000 penalty minutes, lots of points. ... You know how tenacious this guy is, how physical he is, how hard he plays."
