Panthers' Aaron Ekblad: Dealing with upper-body injury
Ekblad is sitting out Monday's matchup against Team Russia with an upper-body injury, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.
Analysis:
Other than listing it as an upper-body injury, the nature and severity of Ekblad's injury remain unclear. We should see his status updated again in the next few days, but look for Jacob Trouba to take his place in Monday's outing versus Russia in the meantime.
