Mason Marchment News
Marchment missed the last two games of the Panthers series vs. the Capitals and will likely miss Game 1 vs. the Lightning. Noel Acciari will skate on the Panthers' third line with Marchment unavailable.
Marchment was not on the ice for Wednesday's morning skate and will be a game-time decision for Game 5 vs. the Capitals. Maxim Mamin skated in Marchment's spot on the third line and figures to replace him if he's not available.
Marchment missed the final three games of the regular season, presumably to nurse some bumps and bruises ahead of their first-round matchup with the Capitals. Marchment burst onto the scene in 2022, scoring 18 goals with 29 assists (47 points) in 54 games.
Marchment will be held out of the lineup on Tuesday with Carter Verhaeghe drawing back into the lineup to replace him.
Marchment has been out since November 8th but is set to return to the lineup on Wednesday. Marchment, who has seven points (1G / 6A) in 10 games this season, will skate on the third line with Anton Lundell and Maxim Mamin.
Marchment has missed the last six games with an upper-body injury but will play Monday vs. the Stars. Marchment, who has spent most of the season on the wing, will play centre because Sam Bennett is out with an upper-body injury of his own.
Marchment was traded from Toronto to Florida last February and has two goals and five assists (seven points) in 22 games with the Panthers in 2021. Marchment has played up-and-down the Panthers' lineup and will be a key part of their forward group next season as well.
Marchment has been in the lineup for the last three games but will be replaced by Dmytro Timashov on Wednesday.
Marchment has two goals and two assists in 11 games with the Marlies (AHL) this season and was called up on Wednesday. The 24-year-old winger is 6-foot-4, 220 lbs. and will replace Dmytro Timashov and is expected to skate on the fourth line in his debut.
Marchment was an undrafted winger who has been with the Marlies since 2015-16 and has scored two goals with two assists (four points) in 11 games this season.
