Brad Marchand debuts vs. Flyers

There will be a feel of the regular season for the Bruins on Tuesday night, including the debuts of both the captain and a highly touted newcomer.

Boston announced its roster for Tuesday night’s preseason game against Philadelphia (6 p.m. ET, NESN), and both Brad Marchand and Elias Lindholm will get their first taste of preseason action for the Black and Gold at the TD Garden.

It’s a significant step for Marchand, who underwent a few offseason surgeries to address various nagging injuries. He recently returned to training and added a welcome spark to practices at Warrior Ice Arena.

He will be joined by Lindholm, who will make his debut this summer after signing a long-term contract. He battled an undisclosed injury during camp, and his family also welcomed a new child late last month.
