Sam Bennett - Set to play Friday Bennett (illness) is expected to play in Friday's game versus the Blues, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.
Impact Bennett missed one game due to the illness. He warmed up on the third line, so it's possible his minutes are managed during the contest, but he should still see power-play time. Bennett is tracking toward a career year with 13 goals and 27 points over 31 appearances this season.

Sergei Bobrovsky - Between pipes Friday Bobrovsky will defend the home crease against St. Louis on Friday.
Impact Bobrovsky is 6-1-0 in his last seven starts with a 2.26 GAA and a .910 save percentage. The 36-year-old netminder is 15-6-1 with a 2.89 GAA and an .892 save percentage this season. He will face the Blues, who have scored only 86 times in 34 contests this season.

Sam Bennett - Considered game-time decision Bennett (illness) is considered a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Blues, Colby Guy of The Palm Beach Post reports.
Impact Bennett missed Wednesday's game against the Wild due to an illness, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to suit up Friday. If he's unavailable, Adam Boqvist will likely move up from the blue line since Jesper Boqvist (upper body) will be sidelined.

Jesper Boqvist - Not available Friday Boqvist will miss Friday's tilt against St. Louis with an upper-body injury, Colby Guy of The Palm Beach Post reports.
Impact Boqvist is on a two-game point streak and has five goals and 11 points in 33 outings this season. Adam Boqvist is expected to move up from the blueline if Sam Bennett (illness) is unable to go as the Panthers have only 11 healthy forwards at this time.

Aleksander Barkov - Earns helper in return Barkov logged an assist in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Wild.
Impact Barkov returned from a two-game absence due to an illness, though the lopsided nature of this contest allowed the Panthers to take it easy on their top center. He saw just 16:01 of ice time and set up a Matthew Tkachuk tally at 15:28 of the second period. Barkov is up to 30 points, 55 shots on net, 27 hits, 21 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 23 appearances, so fantasy managers shouldn't hesitate to have him active again.

Evan Rodrigues - Provides helper in win Rodrigues produced an assist, three shots on goal and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Wild.
Impact Rodrigues ended his five-game slump with the helper. He has two goals and three assists over the five contests prior to that dry spell, but his offense often fluctuates in a middle-six role. The 31-year-old forward is up to 16 points, 60 shots on net, 46 hits, 10 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 33 appearances. Rodrigues' fantasy value is high enough for him to be a factor in deeper formats, especially those that count hits.

Niko Mikkola - Scores again Wednesday Mikkola scored a goal on four shots, added three hits, blocked two shots and went plus-3 in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Wild.
Impact Mikkola has three points over his last two contests. The 28-year-old defenseman has been surprisingly active on offense this season, with four goals and 14 points through 33 appearances, putting him just three points back of matching his career-best production from 2023-24. The blueliner has added 50 shots on net, 49 hits, 40 blocked shots, 26 PIM and a plus-2 rating. Mikkola's worth a look in deeper formats and could have widespread fantasy appeal if he continues to chip in offense on a semi-regular basis.

Eetu Luostarinen - Tacks on goal in blowout win Luostarinen scored a goal on three shots, added four hits, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Wild.
Impact Luostarinen has a goal and an assist over his last two games while seeing a slightly larger role to cover for recent illness absences for Aleksander Barkov and Sam Bennett. The 26-year-old Luostarinen is worth a look as a streaming option or in deeper formats while he's playing on the second line, but he'll likely drop back to the third line when the Panthers get healthy. The Finn has four goals, 13 points, 37 shots on net, 75 hits, 23 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 33 contests.

Sergei Bobrovsky - Outstanding in win over Minnesota Bobrovsky stopped 26 of 27 shots in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Wild.
Impact Bobrovsky not only secured the win in spectacular fashion, but he also provided a bounce-back effort following the 6-5 win over Edmonton on Monday, where he stopped 25 of 30 shots. The 36-year-old veteran might have a few off games here and there, but he's been playing at a high level of late. He's gone 4-1-0 over his last five starts, recording a 2.36 GAA and a .902 save percentage in that stretch. He's allowed one or fewer goals in three of those wins, so he's clearly trending in the right direction after an uneven November where he posted an .888 save percentage across nine starts (6-3-0, 3.11 GAA).
