GAME LOG

Contributes assist in Game 5 win Stenlund logged an assist in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Stenlund set up Evan Rodrigues' third-period insurance tally. The helper was Stenlund's first point in five playoff outings and just his second point in his last 22 contests overall. The 27-year-old center had 15 points in 81 regular-season appearances, but just four of those points came after the All-Star break. He should continue to see bottom-six minutes, at least until Sam Bennett (upper body) is able to return.

Provides helper in Game 5 Luostarinen notched an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Luostarinen's goal drought is now at 17 games, but he has nine assists in that span. Two of those helpers have come over the last two contests, accounting for all of his playoff production through five outings. The winger has added 17 hits, six shots on net, eight PIM and an even plus-minus rating while filling a third-line role in the postseason.

Grabs helper in win Lundell logged an assist, four hits and two PIM in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Lundell's assist streak is up to four games, which coincides with him taking over the second-line center position from Sam Bennett (upper body). With a few days before the second round, it's possible Bennett could be healthy enough to play the next time the Panthers have a game. Lundell would then likely move down the lineup, which would lead to fewer good scoring chances.

Produces assist Forsling notched a shorthanded assist, two shots on goal, three blocked shots and a plus-4 rating in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Forsling recorded four helpers over five games in the first round. The defenseman also has nine shots on net, nine hits, 11 blocks and plus-5 rating in the postseason. Forsling continues to be a key defenseman for the Panthers and should see top-four minutes throughout the playoffs.

Pockets helper in win Ekblad notched a shorthanded assist, eight hits, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Ekblad set up the first of Aleksander Barkov's two goals in the game. Through five playoff contests, Ekblad has two helpers, six shots on net, 25 hits, nine blocked shots and a plus-4 rating. The 28-year-old continues to handle a heavy workload on the Panthers' top pairing, though he sees minimal power-play time.

Logs helper in Game 5 win Tarasenko recorded an assist in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Tarasenko provided decent depth offense in the first round, earning a goal, two assists and four shots on net over five games. He also had eight hits and five blocked shots. Tarasenko's ice time has been limited so far in the playoffs, and that will make it difficult for him to put up more points as the matchups get tougher.
APRIL 30 • ROTOWIRE
Two more assists Monday Tkachuk registered two assists and six shots on goal in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Tkachuk helped out on third-period goals by Aleksander Barkov and Carter Verhaeghe. This was Tkachuk's fourth multi-point effort in five playoff games -- he has accumulated three goals and six assists in the postseason. The winger should continue to see heavy usage in a top-six role while providing solid offense and physical play.

Tallies in Game 5 win Rodrigues scored a goal on three shots and added eight hits in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Rodrigues contributed to the Panthers' third-period rally in their series-clinching win. The goal was his first of the playoffs, and he's added one assist, seven shots on net, 25 hits and an even plus-minus rating over five postseason outings. He should continue to occupy a middle-six role.

One of each Monday Mikkola scored an empty-net goal, added an assist, logged five hits and blocked three shots in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Mikkola helped out on Carter Verhaeghe's opening goal in the second period and scored the final goal of the game in the third. This was Mikkola's first multi-point effort since Dec. 6. He's maintained steady ice time in a top-four role this season, though he's rarely a big contributor on offense. The 28-year-old blueliner had three goals, 17 points, 93 shots on net, 199 hits, 124 blocked shots and 69 PIM over 86 regular-season outings.

Strong in series-clinching win Verhaeghe scored two goals on eight shots, dished an assist and went plus-3 in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Verhaeghe wrapped up the first round with five goals and four assists over five contests. The 28-year-old started the scoring early in the second period, helped out on an Aleksander Barkov goal in the third and then deposited an empty-netter toward the end of the game. Verhaeghe's playoff performances are becoming the stuff of legends -- he had 17 points over 21 outings last spring and appears to be even better in 2024.
APRIL 30 • ROTOWIRE
Three-point effort in win Barkov scored twice on four shots, added an assist, went plus-4, levied four hits and blocked two shots in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Barkov's first tally was a shorthanded one in the second period, and it stood as the series-clinching goal. He also added the first of four goals in the third as the Panthers ran away with the win. The center ends the first round of the playoffs with five points, 14 shots on net, 14 hits, six blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over five appearances. He posted 23 goals and 80 points over 73 regular-season outings while serving as the Panthers' top-line center.

Secures series win Bobrovsky stopped 31 of 32 shots in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
Impact Bobrovsky secured a 4-1 series win in the first round with Monday's strong showing. The 35-year-old has given up 14 goals over five playoffs contests, though six of them came in his lone loss in Game 4. The Panthers will have a little extra time ahead of the second round, where they'll face either the Bruins or the Maple Leafs.
