Dmitry Kulikov Considered Week-To-Week
Florida Panthers defenseman Dmitry Kulikov (upper body) is viewed as week-to-week, according to head coach Paul Maurice. However, Maurice noted that he expects Kulikov to return before the start of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Kulikov suffered this injury during their contest against the New York Islanders on Sunday. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring his status but expect him to remain out of the starting lineup for at least the next few weeks. Before the injury, the 34-year-old has tallied 13 points (four goals) across 68 contests this season. During this stretch, Kulikov has logged 110 hits with 70 blocked shots. While Kulikov remains out, Tobias Bjornfot will have a role in the starting lineup on the bottom defenseman pair. When Kulikov returns, he will only have value in formats that reward hits and blocks.
