Jim Montgomery Reveals Why Marchand Is Absent

Jim Montgomery, the head coach of the Boston Bruins, addressed fans' concerns about the absence of star player Brad Marchand with a much-awaited update. In a recent statement, Montgomery clarified that Marchand's absence from practice was due to a scheduled "maintenance day."

This explanation eases worries, indicating that Marchand's absence was a proactive step to ensure he is in peak condition for upcoming games. Maintenance days are a common practice in professional sports, providing players the opportunity to rest and recover, particularly when dealing with minor issues.

While Marchand's initial absence may have caused concern, it appears he will soon return to the ice, much to the relief of Bruins fans.
