Boston Bruins forward Brad Marchand understands why he was suspended for two games by the NHL's Department of Player Safety on Friday.

"(I've) got to live with it," Marchand told CSNNE's Joe Haggerty. "It could have been three or four games. It's definitely on the edge, for sure. It's a dangerous play."

He took out New York Rangers forward Derick Brassard with a slew-foot along the boards in Thursday's 3-0 win.

The winger took part in Saturday's optional morning skate despite the suspension.
