NHL Injury Report October Twenty First: Star Centers and Top Defenders Sidelined

Auswirkung auf Wetten: Barkov is the heart of this team. His absence for the next six to eight weeks is a massive downgrade for the Panthers' defensive structure and power play.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: Losing Marchand takes away a huge chunk of their scoring and veteran presence. Expect the Panthers to struggle with offensive consistency.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: With Markstrom out, the Panthers lose their primary safety net in net. This makes them a risky bet if the backup isn't having a career night.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: He's a depth piece, but his physical presence is missed on the fourth line. It won't move the line but it hurts their grit.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: Konecny is their most dangerous threat on the rush. Without him, the Flyers lack the explosive speed needed to back off opposing defenders.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: Tippett is a volume shooter. His absence means fewer pucks on net and less pressure on the Buffalo goaltender.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: York is a key part of their defensive rotation. His absence forces bottom pair guys into minutes they probably shouldn't be playing.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: He provides much needed size on the back end. But he is closing in on a return, so watch his status for the next game.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: Monitor pregame. He's a reliable depth center who helps with faceoffs and penalty killing.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: Monitor pregame. Danforth brings energy to the bottom six, but his absence won't move the betting line much.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: His flare up is a blow to their defensive mobility. The Sabres will miss his ability to exit the zone cleanly.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: A setback in his recovery means Buffalo has to rely on their other options in net for the foreseeable future.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: Another body out on defense. Buffalo is reaching deep into their system to fill these holes.

Auswirkung auf Wetten: Chabot eats massive minutes. Without him, the Senators' power play loses its quarterback and their breakout becomes much slower.
