Boston Bruins star Brad Marchand has been offered an in-person hearing for roughing/high-sticking Penguins goaltender Tristan Jarry in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to Pittsburgh. 

The in-person hearing, which will be conducted over zoom, allows the league to suspend Marchand for more than five games.

With 25 seconds remaining in the third period, Marchand received a match penalty after throwing a punch at Jarry’s head after he made a save, then poked the goaltender’s mask with his stick as a linesman was escorted him away. He was also given two minutes for roughing. 

Marchand was suspended in November for three games for slew-footing Vancouver Canucks defenceman Oliver Ekman-Larsson.

“Obviously lack of discipline on Brad’s part in that situation,” coach Bruce Cassidy said after the game. “Brad’s a leader on our team and he needs to control his emotions."

Marchand played 21:48 TOI and had five shots on goals in the loss.
