Still not ready Barkov (lower body) won't play Thursday versus Detroit.

Impact Barkov is expected to return to action at some point during Florida's current four-game home stand, but he'll have to wait for Saturday's clash with Columbus for his next opportunity to do so.

Should return during homestand Coach Joel Quenneville expects Barkov (lower body) to be ready to return at some point during the Panthers' current four-game homestand, David Dwork of Local 10 Miami reports.

Impact Barkov won't be available for Tuesday's game versus Detroit, but he's clearly inching closer to a return to action. The 25-year-old pivot will likely need to get a practice or two in before rejoining the lineup, so expect another update on his status once that occurs. Barkov's racked up 13 goals and 37 points in 31 games this campaign, so fantasy managers will want to track his status closely.

Expected to miss next two games Barkov (lower body) is considered doubtful for the Panthers' back-to-back set against the Stars on Saturday and Sunday, David Dwork of Local 10 Miami reports.

Impact Barkov has been making progress in his recovery, but it's safe to assume the star center will be held out until Tuesday's matchup with the Red Wings at a minimum. The 25-year-old Finn has racked up 13 goals and 37 points in 31 games this campaign.

Impact Barkov will still be out for Thursday's matchup against the Blackhawks. He'll need to show progress over the next couple of days to get back into the lineup, but this is an encouraging sign for fantasy managers and Panthers faithful alike. Barkov was dominant before this injury, accruing 13 goals and 37 points across 31 games.

Won't play Thursday Barkov (lower body) won't play Thursday versus the Blackhawks.

Impact Barkov will miss a second straight contest with his lower-body issue. The 25-year-old Finn has been exceptional this season, having racked up 13 goals and 37 points in 31 games, so fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on his status ahead of Saturday's matchup with Dallas.

Could return soon Barkov (lower body) is not expected to be out long term, though his status for Thursday's clash with Chicago remains uncertain, George Richards of Panthers Press Box reports.

Impact Barkov missed out against the Hawks on Tuesday after picking up his lower-body injury. With the elite center sidelined, the club utilized Noel Acciari on the first line and could do so again Thursday, though Alexander Wennberg could also be in the mix for the top spot.
