Bobrovsky Starting on Tuesday
Sergei Bobrovsky will guard the cage on the road against Dallas on Tuesday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers’ official site reports. Bobrovsky has given up two or fewer goals in 12 straight games, posting a 10-2-0 record, a 1.57 GAA and a .945 save percentage in that span. The Panthers have been playing it relatively conservatively with the veteran netminder’s workload, having used him in just 12 of the last 20 contests. Still, Bobrovsky is firmly cemented as the No. 1 option ahead of Anthony Stolarz, with head coach Paul Maurice telling Olive that he wants to get Bobrovsky in a rhythm.
Faksa Scores Again Saturday
Radek Faksa scored a goal and added two hits in Saturday’s 4-1 win over the Kings. Faksa tallied at 10:34 of the second period to tie the game at 1-1, and Jason Robertson put the Stars ahead 18 seconds later. With three goals over four games in March, Faksa’s offense has taken a leap forward. The 30-year-old forward has six goals, eight assists, 52 shots on net, 74 hits and 36 blocked shots over 58 appearances. He’s been an occasional healthy scratch this season, but Faksa will be hard to remove from the lineup if he keeps scoring.
