Brad Marchand and the Florida Panthers hit with unfortunate news ahead of game 3 of the ECF

In this series, the Florida Panthers have shown why they are a heavy favourite to win the Stanley Cup. They have dominated the Carolina Hurricanes and have taken a 2-0 lead with the series shifting back to Florida now.

During game 2, everyone for Florida showed up when they embarrassed the Hurricanes on their own ice, winning the game 5-0 to take a 2-0 lead in the series, but it came at a cost.

Sam Bennett had an outstanding game in game 2 scoring two goals and also picking up an assist for three points, but now there is some question about his health moving forward.

Reinhart ended up leaving game 2 with a lower-body injury and did not return.

Here is the play that ultimately ended up injuring him, not allowing him to return:

After the game, Paul Maurice ended up saying that Reinhart is going to be examined tomorrow (today), and they are hopeful that it isn't as bad as it looks.

For Marchand and the Panthers, hopefully the team held him out for precautionary reasons, and he is able to return for game 3.
