The Panthers reassigned Samoskevich to Charlotte (AHL) on Monday.

Samoskevich was sent down to make room for Chris Driedger, who is projected to back up Spencer Knight in Pittsburgh on Tuesday as Sergei Bobrovsky did not travel with the team due to the impending birth of his child. Samoskevich is likely to be quickly recalled to the Panthers once Bobrovsky returns.

Lundell (upper-body) will return to Florida's lineup in Carolina on Friday.

Jonah Gadjovich will be a healthy scratch on Friday, allowing Lundell to return from a one-game absence. The 23-year-old Lundell has 16 points (7G / 9A) in 22 games this season, pacing for a career-high, but has been held off the scoresheet in seven of his last eight.

Bobrovsky will start in Carolina on Friday.

Bobrovsky saved 23 of 24 shots (.958 SV%) in his previous outing, helping the Panthers snap a four-game losing skid in a dominating 5-1 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 36-year-old Bobrovsky has a 3.05 GAA and .889 SV% through 16 games this season (10-5-1), stats well below his career averages. The Panthers enter the action on Friday afternoon as +139 road underdogs against a Hurricanes club that has scored 14 goals in their previous three games (2-0-1).

Tarasov (illness) is expected to be out on Friday vs. Calgary.

Tarasov has not played since November 16th and will not suit on Friday due to an illness. The 25-year-old Tarasov has an ugly 4.04 GAA and .861 SV% in eight games this season (3-4-1). The Blue Jackets have recalled Jet Greaves from the Cleveland Monsters (AHL) on an emergency basis.

Lundell (upper-body) will not play against the Maple Leafs on Wednesday.

Lundell is battling an upper-body injury, and he will miss Wednesday's game against the Toronto Maple Leafs as a result. The 23-year-old Lundell has 16 points (7G / 9A) in 22 games this season, pacing for a career-high, but has been held off the scoresheet in seven of his last eight.

Bobrovsky will start vs. Toronto on Wednesday.

The Panthers, amid a season-worst four-game losing skid, outscored 20-9, will turn to Bobrovsky between the pipes on Wednesday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 36-year-old Bobrovsky has been unspectacular this season, posting a 3.18 GAA and .885 SV% in 15 games (9-5-1), and has allowed four or more goals in three of his last four (1-3-0). That said, the Panthers enter Wednesday's contest as -133 home favorites against a Maple Leafs club riding a four-game winning streak.

Bobrovsky will start Saturday vs. the Avalanche.

Bobrovsky allowed four goals on 25 shots in the Panthers loss in Winnipeg on Tuesday.
