Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk (groin) has reportedly undergone surgery. David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period reports that Tkachuk had the procedure "a few weeks ago" and will miss the start of the season. Tkachuk isn't expected to begin the 2025-26 campaign before January. Only recently, Tkachuk mentioned that he was "50-50" on whether he would have surgery to repair a torn hip abductor and a hernia. With Tkachuk sidelined, Brad Marchand could become a regular in the top six for Florida, although he was extremely effective alongside Eetu Luostarinen and Anton Lundell on the third line in last season's playoffs.--Taavi Pailk
