Barkov status unclear for Panthers after injury in Game 2 of Cup Final.
The Florida Panthers took a 2-0 lead in the Stanley Cup Final on Monday, but the status of star center and captain Aleksander Barkov is murky. Barkov didn’t play the final 9:28 of the Panthers’ 4-1 win against the Edmonton Oilers at Amarant Bank Arena after taking a high hit from forward Leon Draisaitl, who was given a two-minute penalty for roughing. Barkov was down for a minute or so after the hit before being helped off the ice and to the dressing room.
