Bruins' Marchand faces hearing, possible ban
- Brad Marchand will have an in-person hearing with NHL Player Safety Wednesday night for roughing and high sticking against Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Tristan Jarry.
- Marchand was in the vicinity, and after it appeared that Jarry said something to Marchand, the Bruins winger took a swing at him.
- Linesman Andrew Smith was also involved and tried to get Marchand off the ice and away from Jarry, but Marchand escaped Smith long enough to hit Jarry's mask with his stick.
- Bruins coach Bruce Cassidy said he watched a replay of what happened after the game and saw an obvious "lack of discipline" on Marchand's part in the moment, but that also something had clearly sparked his anger toward Jarry.
- "I think it's just the heat of the moment," Jarry said.
