Captain Brad Marchand has downplayed trade speculation regarding his future with the Boston Bruins amid concerns about the team’s playoff prospects.
According to reports, the Bruins may consider trading Marchand, who’s in the final year of a $49 million contract, if the team continues to struggle.
Following the Bruins’ 6-2 defeat to the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday night, Marchand said that he’s not concerned about speculation and that his focus remains on contributing to the Bruins as long as he’s a part of the organization.
“No, I mean, I, I’m not really worried about what’s being said in the media. At the end of the day, like I said, there are going to make the decisions for the group they feel is necessary.
I have no control over that, so going to worry about what’s going on here and plan for this group. And, you know, as long as we’re in Boston Bruins, that’s what I’m worried about,” Marchand said when asked about trade speculation around him.
It’s difficult to envision the Bruins trading their captain at the trade deadline, but if they do so, there would be several teams interested in acquiring the veteran.
Brad Marchand was selected 71st overall by the Bruins in the 2006 NHL Draft and has been with the organization for 16 seasons. The 36-year-old has accumulated 40 points through 19 goals and 21 assists this season.
