4 years agoFlorida Panthers right wing Patric Hornqvist, who missed Monday's 4-1 loss to Nashville for an unspecified reason, is also ruled out for Tuesday's rematch. The team has now announced that the veteran is dealing with an upper-body injury and is day-to-day. Hornqvist has been a big piece offensively for the Panthers, notching 14 goals and 32 points in 44 games. He also missed last Tuesday's 5-1 win over Columbus, so it seems like he's pretty banged up as we head into the final stretch of the regular season. With Hornqvist out of the lineup, Aleksi Heponiemi and Grigori Denisenko get a chance to fill top-six roles on Tuesday.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
