Brad Marchand took part in his first skate with the Florida Panthers Tuesday, but he will not make his team debut in Boston. Marchand was in a regular jersey in Tuesday's gameday skate as Florida gets set to play the Boston Bruins and worked on a line with Aleksander Barkov and Carter Verhaeghe.
However, head coach Paul Maurice said after the session that the team simply remains hopeful Marchand will play before the end of the regular season. He labelled Tuesday's skate as progress, but noted it doesn't change Marchand's status as he remains out week-to-week.
The 36-year-old forward has been out since March 1 due to an upper-body injury. He has 21 goals and 47 points in 61 games this season.
