Line Change
Ellerby, Santorelli and Theo back in
Santorelli is expected to draw back in after a one-game healthy scratch. He has four goals and an assist but is not a favored player of coach Kevin Dineen.
Line Change
It was thought newcomer Krys Barch would be the healthy scratch, but instead, Dineen decided to bench Mike Santorelli.
Despite his success last season, Santorelli does not seem to be one of Dineen's favored offensive players. The former Nashville Predator has four goals and an assist through 22 games with the new-look Panthers.
Line Change
Santorelli playing.
Santorellli will make his season debut tonight on the fourth line. Last season, the pivot finished the year with 20 goal and 41 points, proving he can be useful to fantasy hockey owners.

Santorellli is still looking to make his season debut. Last season, the pivot finished the year with 20 goal and 41 points, proving he can be useful to fantasy hockey owners.
Line Change
Santorelli, who has been out since preseason after injuring his shoulder, skated on a line with Ryan Carter and Matt Bradley.
Looks like if Matthias can't play tonight, Santorelli will draw back in. Known as more of an offensive player, the Vancouver native scored 20 goals and 41 points last season centering the second line. His new coach likely eases him back into the lineup.
Center Mike Santorelli says his injured shoulder is healing and that he is feeling good. Santorelli hasn't been cleared to practice yet, but he says he's practicing on his own. Dineen said when Santorelli was hurt that he could be back before Halloween.
When Santorelli returns, it will be interesting to see what line he fits on. Last season Santorelli scored 20 goals and 41 points through 82 games. With improved wingers he was expected to top those totals.
Barring injury, Florida will have to make another roster move in the coming weeks when Mike Santorelli (shoulder) is ready to play. Santorelli isn't wearing a sling and has been watching practices the past few days.
Last season Santorelli scored 20 goals and 41 points through 82 games. With improved wingers he was expected to top those totals but could need to earn his place in the lineup following this injury.
Some bad news out of Panthers practice as center Mike Santorelli will be out for about 2-4 weeks with a shoulder injury sustained in the second period of Tuesday’s 4-3 OT loss to Dallas.
Tough news as Santorelli was expected to center one of the top two lines. The former 6th round pick scored 20 goals and 41 points last season with the Panthers. He should come near those totals this season if he remains a vital part of the team's offense.
As expected the Panthers re-signed forward Mike Santorelli to a two-year deal. Santorelli, 25, scored 20 goals in his first full NHL season and should be a good fit with some of the skilled forwards that GM Dale Tallon and asst. GM Mike Santos will surround him with.
