Bruins newest forward Pat Maroon spoke about finally practicing with the team and getting in the lineup before playoffs.
Maroon was acquired by the Bruins from Minnesota but has yet to play due to an injury that he has been dealing with since February 6th.
The 6'3 forward skated for the first time with his new teammates on Monday and told the media the plan is to hopefully get a couple of games in before the playoffs.
«It felt good,» Maroon said after the workout, «I've kind of been lonely skating by myself. I tried to get up to speed with those guys. I'm certainly excited to feel a part of it. I'm excited to be back. I'm close (to playing in games). I've been out for almost twelve weeks. Hopefully, I'll be back soon. I think the end goal is to play a couple of games before the playoffs.
It will be interesting to see how Maroon does on the Bruins 4th line as they have been playing very well ever since they added Justin Brazeau to the mix.
