—@BallyBetPanarin and Marchand were standing in front of their respective benches when the glove-throwing episode occurred during the third period of New York's 5-2 victory at Boston on Friday. Panarin was assessed a misconduct penalty.
After the game, Marchand elected to have a little fun about the subject of their conversation.
"We were just asking each other how Thanksgiving dinner was, and he didn't like what I ate," Marchand said.
Panarin, who had a goal and an assist in the win, has five goals and 16 assists in 20 games this season.
