Florida Panthers DFS SPIN
Sergei Bobrovsky will be between the pipes at home versus Montreal on Thursday. Bobrovsky has continued to struggle of late with a 2-5-0 record and 2.89 GAA in his previous seven contests. Despite Bobrovsky’s stumbles, Spencer Knight has disappointed even more, conceding seven goals in his last outing. At this point, Bobrovsky should continue to see the bulk of the workload moving forward.
Carolina Hurricanes DFS SPIN
Max Pacioretty (Achilles) will not play Friday against Florida, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes’ official site reports. Pacioretty skated in a regular jersey at practice Tuesday and coach Rod Brind’Amour said after practice Thursday that while the winger will not play Friday, it’s possible he’ll make his season debut within the next 10 contests. Pacioretty tore his Achilles tendon in August and the original prognosis was a six-month recovery timetable, so he’s still well ahead of his initially expected mid-February return date.
