Bruins played
Game 3 against Florida Panthers without their captain Brad Marchand for the final 20 minutes.
By Arforbes
Marchand was
sidelined due to an upper body injury, announced by Boston at the start of the third period.
The exact moment of
Marchand's injury is unclear, but it may have resulted from a hard hit by Panthers center Sam Bennett during the first period.
Despite the hit,
Marchand continued playing until he was ruled out.
Bruins head coach
Jim Montgomery didn't provide further updates on Marchand's condition after the game.
Montgomery commented on the Bennett hit, suggesting a history between the players.
Losing Marchand
is a significant setback for the Bruins, given his role as a top scorer and key contributor on special teams.
Game 4 of the
series is scheduled for Sunday night at TD Garden, with Bruins facing pressure to bounce back without Marchand.
