The Boston Bruins have traded Brad Marchand to the Florida Panthers. Marchand was in the final months of an eight-year deal with Boston that carried a $6.125 million salary cap hit.
Marchand wanted to remain with the Bruins, but the sides were unable to agree to an extension.
Marchand competed in every game for Team Canada at 4 Nations Face-Off and was effective for the Bruins, scoring 21 goals in 61 games this season.
