Daniil Tarasov - Defending crease Saturday Tarasov will guard the road goal against Washington on Saturday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Tarasov will get the second half of Florida's back-to-back after Sergei Bobrovsky played in Friday's 9-1 loss to Carolina. The 26-year-old Tarasov has a 5-6-2 record with a 2.81 GAA and a .904 save percentage through 14 appearances of the 2025-26 campaign. Washington sits 11th in the league with 3.23 goals per game this season.

Brad Marchand - Put on injured reserve Marchand (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, per the NHL media site.

Impact Marchand has already missed four games and will be eligible to return to action as soon as he is ready. The veteran winger has 23 goals, 23 assists, 16 power-play points and 115 shots on goal across 41 appearances this season. He could return as early as Monday versus San Jose.

Jack Studnicka - Coming up empty on offense Studnicka was scratched in Friday's 9-1 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact That's a two-edged sword for Studnicka. He was scratched for the fourth time since his Dec. 1 recall from AHL Charlotte, but he's yet to earn a point in 18 appearances in a fourth-line role. He's added 16 shots on net, 19 hits, six blocked shots, four PIM and a minus-6 rating. Given the Panthers' brutal loss Friday, it seems likely he'll get another chance to play soon, but he hasn't done anything to get the attention of fantasy managers.

Sandis Vilmanis - Earns first NHL point Vilmanis logged an assist and a minus-2 rating in Friday's 9-1 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Vilmanis got on the scoresheet by assisting Uvis Balinskis' goal in the second period. This was Vilmanis' first NHL point, and he's added three shots on net, four hits and a minus-2 rating over three contests. The 21-year-old winger is likely to get a look in a middle-six role until one of Brad Marchand (undisclosed) or Matthew Tkachuk (groin) returns to the lineup.

Uvis Balinskis - Nets lone goal in loss Balinskis scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 9-1 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Balinskis signed a two-year contract extension earlier in the day, and he celebrated with just his second goal of the season. The 29-year-old defenseman is in line for power-play time while Seth Jones (upper body) is out. Balinskis has nine points, 33 shots on net, 47 hits, 27 blocked shots and 24 PIM over 37 appearances this season, mainly in a bottom-four role.

Sergei Bobrovsky - Late collapse in Carolina Bobrovsky gave up a career-worst nine goals on 35 shots in Friday's 9-1 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Carolina dominated play most of the game, out-shooting Florida 35-16, but Bobrovsky actually kept things close through two periods before the 'Canes erupted for six goals in the final frame. The outing continues a rough January for the veteran netminder, and Bobrovsky is 2-4-0 over six starts this month with a brutal 4.42 GAA and .810 save percentage.
