Brad Marchand is bracing for an emotional night back in Boston on Tuesday. It will be the first time Marchand takes on the Bruins as a member of the Florida Panthers.
Marchand spent the first 16 seasons of his NHL career with a Spoked-B on his sweater and did some incredible things for the Bruins. He helped the team win a Stanley Cup in 2011 in his first full season in the league and instantly became a fan favorite for his knack for scoring big goals and getting under the skid of the opposition. Marchand potted a lot of game-winners (82 in the regular season and 13 more in the playoffs) and short-handed goals (36 to lead all active players) for the Bruins, and helped the team make two more trips to the Stanley Cup Final He also served as Boston's captain for two seasons.
