Despite being traded from the Boston Bruins to the Florida Panthers just over three weeks ago, forward Brad Marchand has been out of the team's lineup due to an upper-body injury. He made his debut on Friday night against the Utah Hockey Club—and made the most out of it.

Brad Marchand is ready for his Florida debut. The Panthers said Marchand — who, because of an upper-body injury, hasn't appeared in a game with Florida since being acquired in a trade with Boston three weeks ago — will be in the lineup Friday night when the team plays host to the Utah Hockey Club.

Brad Marchand is set to take the ice for the Florida Panthers on Friday night. It has been three weeks since the Bruins sent their captain to the rival Panthers in a shocking deadline day trade, but the veteran winger has only practiced with his new team because of an upper-body injury.
