SUNRISE — The Florida Panthers should have captain Sasha Barkov in the lineup this afternoon when they play the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 3 of their first-round playoff series.
Coach Paul Maurice said before the game that Barkov would take warmups.
“He feels good. We think he’s good,’’ Maurice said. “He has to get through it, get his heart rate up. We think he’s good.’’
Barkov left Thursday’s eventual 2-0 win over the Lightning after taking an illegal hit from Brandon Hagel.
On Friday night, the NHL suspended Hagel for one game.
If Barkov cannot go, the Panthers will likely just move Sam Reinhart back with Anton Lundell and Eetu Luostarinen.
