Derek MacKenzie Will Miss Panthers Home Opener
6 years agoFlorida Panthers center Derek MacKenzie (upper body) will miss Thursday's tilt against Columbus, with Juho Lammikko set to take his place for his NHL debut. MacKenzie had only four shifts and logged less than four minutes on the ice during the team's season opener last Saturday against Tampa. Lammikko, who's a third-round pick of the 2014 NHL Draft, had eight goals and 28 points in 59 games for the AHL's Springfield Thunderbirds last season. He'll be centering the fourth line, so the 22-year-old Finn doesn't have much fantasy value at present.
