Aleksander Barkov Exits Win With Injury
12 months agoFlorida Panthers center Aleksander Barkov exited Thursday's 4-1 win against Vegas with an upper-body injury. He took an elbow to the face from Golden Knights defenseman Alec Martinez and logged less than five minutes of action. The Panthers also finished without Evan Rodrigues (lower body), who saw only 3:05 of ice time. The team pulled off an impressive victory in the Stanley Cup Finals rematch without the two, but it will be tough to replace them if the players are sidelined for the upcoming games. Barkov is Florida's second-leading scorer with 39 points (11 goals, 28 assists) across 25 outings, and Rodrigues has notched 24 points (seven goals, 17 assists) in 38 contests.
