FORT LAUDERDALE – Jonah Gadjovich will miss roughly a week with an upper-body injury, head coach Paul Maurice announced after practice at Baptist Health IcePlex on Monday.
“He’s going to be out a week, I would think,” Maurice said. “Then we’ll see where he’s at.”
Gadjovich sustained the injury during Saturday’s 3-0 win over the Vegas Golden Knights.
“Took an elbow,” Maurice said.
A key player on the fourth line, Gadjovich had been off to a great start this season.
In 10 games, he’s dished out three assists to go along with a +2 plus-minus rating.
The hard-nosed forward also ranks first on the Panthers with 30 hits.
With Gadjovich out – and with leading scorer Brad Marchand also missing Tuesday’s game against the Ducks for personal reasons – Luke Kunin and Noah Gregor will slot into
