Brad Marchand is stepping away from the Florida Panthers to support a friend whose daughter died.
Marchand traveled to his hometown of Halifax earlier to support local coach and trainer JP MacCallum, whose 10-year-old daughter Selah died after a year-long battle with cancer.
Wednesday's game will be used as an opportunity to honor Selah’s memory and raise funds for her family, and Marchand has donated a signed jersey for an online raffle.
