Report: Marchand won't be disciplined for Stralman trip
by from on (#2B2ST)
Boston Bruins winger Brad Marchand will reportedly not face discipline for a dangerous trip on Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Anton Stralman.
Hearing no discipline for Brad Marchand. Going towards puck, not seen as intentional like Kronwall play from last week.

The incident, for which Marchand was not penalized, took place during Tuesday's game between the two clubs:
On Jan. 26, Marchand was fined $10,000 for a dangerous trip on Detroit's Niklas Kronwall.
Based on this apparent decision, Marchand - who sits fifth in NHL scoring with 51 points - will be in the lineup when Boston plays Washington on Wednesday.
