FORT LAUDERDALE — Panthers coach Paul Maurice did not rule injured players Sam Reinhart, Niko Mikkola and A.J. Greer in or out for Wednesday’s Game 5 in Carolina, the veteran coach said Tuesday. “We’ll see how they are (Wednesday),

It was a soggy start to the summer for the Carolina Panthers ... However, all three players worked away from their teammates during team and individual drills. Canales said Coker is dealing with a soft tissue injury, while Brown is continuing to recover ...

The Florida Panthers will be without multiple key players as they look for a sweep in the Eastern Conference Final.

Head coach Dave Canales chatted with reporters after finishing up the first of six sessions of organized team activities on Tuesday. He revealed that Tommy Tremble, one of the very few players not in attendance for the workout this afternoon, recently underwent back surgery.

Reinhart (lower body) participated in Tuesday's optional practice but remains questionable for Game 5 against Carolina on Wednesday, George Richards of NHL.com reports. Reinhart has missed Florida's last two games and remains day-to-day after skating for the first time since leaving Game 2 versus the Hurricanes last Thursday.

On Sunday, Panthers Head Coach Paul Maurice provided an update on a few of his players who are battling injuries. #FlaPanthers coach Paul Maurice said he believes Niko Mikkola and AJ Greer should both be good for Game 4. Sam Reinhart hasn’t been cleared but hasn’t been ruled out. All decisions will be made after morning skate.

Sam Reinhart didn’t play in Game 3 against Carolina, while Niko Mikkola and A.J. Greer left with injury in the third period of the win.

Mikkola sustained an apparent upper-body injury in Saturday's Game 3 versus the Hurricanes, but the defenseman is expected to be okay for Game 4 on Monday, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports.
