SUNRISE, Fla. — Florida Panthers star winger Brad Marchand revealed on social media that he underwent surgery for an injury, though he hasn't disclosed where the procedure took place or what specific injury was treated.
The 38-year-old player missed significant time last season, sitting out the final 19 games due to an unspecified lower-body injury. Head coach Paul Maurice mentioned in March that Marchand had been battling the issue for several months.
