Barkov was forced to leave Thursday’s game after blocking a shot with his hand. There was no update on Barkov’s status, but he was spotted leaving the arena with his hand wrapped in a bandage. The Panthers can’t afford to lose Barkov for an extended period of time, but if they do, expect Rocco Grimaldi to be recalled. Expect the Panthers to update Barkov’s status by Saturday morning.

Bennett (upper-body) returned to practice on Monday.

Bennett missed Saturday’s game vs. the Oilers, but was back at practice on Monday, which suggests that he will be back in the lineup on Tuesday vs. the Capitals. Bennett skated on the second line with Mikael Backlund and Jiri Hudler. The 19-year-old has one assist in four games this season.

Bobrovsky will start in net on Friday vs. Toronto.

Bobrovsky allowed six goals on 26 shots in the Blue Jackets loss to the Senators on Wednesday. Bobrovsky’s season is off to a dreadful start. He has lost all four of his starts while allowing at least four goals in each game. Tonight he faces a winless Maple Leafs team, but enters with a 5.05 GAA and .830 SV%.

Bobrovsky will start Monday afternoon vs. the Sabres.

Bobrovksy was pulled after allowing four goals on 22 shots in the Blue Jackets 5-2 loss in New York on Saturday. It was his second game in as many nights, which is never an easy thing to do, but Bobrovksy struggled mightily. He enters play on Monday having allowed eight goals on 47 shots (.830 SV%) but draws a strong matchup vs. the Sabres.

Reinhart could be a healthy scratch on Monday vs. the Blue Jackets.

Reinhart registered one assist and two shots on goal while averaging just 10:58 TOI in the first two games of the regular season, but with Brian Gionta on pace to return to the lineup tomorrow, it looks like Reinhart may sit. He skated as the extra forward, working in and out on lines during Sunday’s practice which suggests that he will be out vs. Columbus.

Marchand left Saturday’s game with a head injury and did not return.

Marchand left last night’s game and was not on the ice for Bruins’ practice this morning. Immediate concern is that Marchand suffered a concussion, which could sideline him for a little while. The Bruins play on Monday, monitor Marchand’s status heading into tomorrow’s morning skate.

Bobrovsky will start again on Saturday afternoon.

Bobrovsky allowed four goal on 25 shots in the Blue Jackets loss to the Rangers last night. The Blue Jackets had a lead with less than four minutes left in the game, but the Rangers cashed in three times in less than 90 seconds to win. He will get another crack at the Rangers tonight on the road.

Bobrovsky will start the Blue Jackets season opener vs. the Rangers.

Bobrovsky was limited to 51 starts last season, but he was still a 30-game winner while posting a 2.68 GAA and .918 SV%. Bobrovsky has posted strong numbers in his tim with Columbus, but he has yet to stay healthy enough to start 60-plus games. If he can do that in 2015-16, he could turn into a top-5 fantasy netminder. Tonight he starts his season vs. the Rangers—he was 1-1-1 with a 2.62 GAA and .915 SV% in three games vs. New York last year.

The Flames will burn the first year of Bennett’s contract when he plays in Game 3 on Tuesday.

Bennett will suit up in his 10th game of the season, which will burn the first year of his entry level contract. The Flames will not hesitate to burn that year, because Bennett gives them a chance to win. The 18-year-old has three goals and one assist in eight playoff games.
