Boy, was seeing Brad Marchand on the ice for the morning skate a sight for sore eyes. The Boston Bruins forward had missed the previous two games due to an upper body ailment. It’s a good thing his injury wasn’t more serious, because missing Brad Marchand long-term for this team would be devastating to the season.
On the first game of the back-to-back home-and-home series, the Bruins started their back-up Anton Khudobin. The Maple Leafs took the opposite approach and started their number one goalie in Fredrik Andersson. The Bruins have already announced that Tuukka Rask will start tomorrow night, and I would imagine we’ll see Curtis McElhinney in net for the Leafs tomorrow.
