Brad Marchand will skate Friday for the first time since the Boston Bruins forward had surgery in May.
Marchand was expected to need six months to recover from a hip arthroscopy and labral repair on each hip and is on track to return in late November.
\"It\'s pretty much like learning how to skate again,\" Marchand told the Bruins website at the Bruins Foundation Golf Tournament in Plymouth, Massachusetts, on Thursday. \"Very light for this next little while and then hopefully progress each week. … The last few days of November is kind of the target date (to return).\"
