The Florida Panthers placed five players in the NHL's COVID-19 protocol in advance of Thursday night's game against the Los Angeles Kings. Sam Bennett, Radko Gudas, Ryan Lomberg, Brandon Montour and Carter Verhaeghe will be unavailable.
The Panthers also placed an unnamed member of their travel party into COVID-19 protocol.
Verhaeghe has 22 points in 28 games this season. Bennett has 14 points in 24 games. Gudas and Montour average 18:40 and 16:48 of ice time per game, respectively.
The Panthers announced Thursday they've recalled forwards Grigori Denisenko and Cole Schwindt and defensemen Matt Kiersted and Chase Priskie from the AHL's Charlotte Checkers. Goaltender Spencer Knight has also been loaned to the Checkers to give the Panthers the cap space to call up the four players, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman reported.
The Panthers have 40 points through 28 games and are in second place in the Atlantic Division.
