## Resource

Brad Marchand’s return to the Florida Panthers’ lineup is on track — but not for opening night. The star forward underwent surgery in August to address lingering hip and sports hernia issues that had been bothering him since December. Despite playing through pain and leading the team in goals and points before the break, he ultimately needed surgery after aggravating an old injury. General Manager Bill Zito confirmed they’re taking a cautious approach to his rehab, but expects Marchand back in action early. Already skating at training camp, the Panthers are prioritizing his long-term health — and fans are eager to see their top scorer back on the ice soon.
