OH NO: Injury Bug Continues to hit the Cats as Aleksander Barkov went down with apparent leg injury

On today's edition of the Locked On FLORIDA Panthers Podcast, Armando Velez(@Mandoman12) brought in Nich Fairbanks(@Prudentia0) for another edition of Fairbanks Friday. The guys discuss the news of Panthers Captain Aleksander Barkov going down in practice on Thursday and being helped by trainers off the ice putting zero weight on his right leg. The guys discuss their reaction to it, how the Panthers have done in Barkov's absence over the years. Bill Zito has been able to keep most of the band together with Matthew Tkachuk starting the season on Long Term Injured Reserve, and it was the "in case of emergency" approach in the case of another injury happening, although it has arrived earlier than expected, Zito made sure to get insurance on the roster. What could the forward lines look like? Do the forwards on PTO's have a better chance at making it? To wrap up the, Paul Maurice discussed about how controlling your day and winning the day is what truly matters no matter how long Barkov is going to be out, and Jeff Petry got to discuss his approach to training camp, and what did Mackie Samoskevich learn from watching the games from the pres sbox after getting scratched after game 2 in round two last year?
