Florida Panthers, through head coach Paul Maurice, provide an update on the injury of a teammate of Matthew Tkachuk and Brad Marchand during the 2025 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs against the Carolina Hurricanes.

Count on Matthew Tkachuk to find the net in Game 3 best bet and prediction between the Florida Panthers and Carolina Hurricanes.

The Panthers look unstoppable in their third consecutive Eastern Conference Final after a 5-0 shellacking of the Hurricanes in Game 2.

Matthew Tkachuk received a comment from Florida Panthers captain Aleksander Barkov after Game 2 against the Carolina Hurricanes in the Eastern Conference Final of the 2025 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Tkachuk's game has been building since his return from surgery. If he's really 100 percent, the Canes know better than anyone what it means.

Before he scored midway through the first period of the Florida Panthers’ eventual 5-0 rout of the Carolina Hurricanes on Thursday in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference final, the star winger had gone 10 consecutive games in these Stanley Cup playoffs without a goal — a number that caught captain Aleksander Barkov and coach Paul Maurice by surprise.

The forward, known for his offensive skill, hard hits, big-game prowess and ability to get under his opponents’ skin, did all of the above in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Final at Lenovo Center, sparking the defending Stanley Cup champions to a 5-0 win against the Carolina Hurricanes.

Matthew Tkachuk has four goals in 14 games for the Florida Panthers during the playoffs. The left wing returned from an injury but has not been able to impact the game offensively like he usually has.

The Carolina Hurricanes have found themselves in the same dire position in the conference-final rematch against the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers.

Tkachuk has just three assists over the past five games after scoring three goals through Florida’s first three games of the playoffs.

Following the Game 7 triumph over the Toronto Maple Leafs, Florida Panthers star Matthew Tkachuk delivered a surprising victory lap confession about the drama surrounding the organization in Canada.
