Aleksander Barkov Injured In Friday's Win
1 year agoFlorida Panthers center Aleksander Barkov was forced to exit Friday's 2-1 win over the Ducks with a lower-body injury. He missed most of the third period after being involved in a knee-on-knee collision. The Panthers captain has to recover by Monday to avoid missing his second game of the season. Barkov has been on a scoring tear lately and sits on 17 points (six goals, 11 assists) with 16 games played this season. He's also a nifty player without the puck, and Florida will definitely miss his presence all over the ice if Barkov has to take some time off. Anton Lundell, who registered two assists on Friday, will likely cover for Barkov in the top six, assuming he can't play on Monday.
