NHL Suspends Marchand For 5 Games [VIDEO]

The Boston Bruins will be without their top scorer Brad Marchand for the next five games. The NHL Department of Player Safety has suspended Marchand for his hit on New Jersey's Marcus Johansson Tuesday night.

The league reviewed a play showing Marchand throwing an elbow to the head of Johansson and also took into consideration five previous suspensions to Marchard.

Interestinly enough, Marchand can participate in the NHL All Star Weekend coming.
