Brad Marchand was one of three Bruins traded on Friday, as general manager Don Sweeney held a fire sale at the NHL's deadline.

The Panthers have pulled off a last-minute stunner on NHL trade deadline day to acquire Brad Marchand from the Boston Bruins.

This is a hard goodbye for the Boston Bruins and for fans here in New England, as a legend heads south for Florida. As part of a flurry of trade deadline deals Friday, the Bruins traded captain Brad Marchand to the Florida Panthers in exchange for a conditional 2027 second round pick that could become a 2027 or 2028 first round pick if Florida wins two rounds of this year’s playoffs and Marchand appears in at least 50% of their games.
