Blackhawks' Artemi Panarin: Available Friday
Panarin (upper body) is in line to be available for Friday's game against the Islanders, Tracey Myers of CSN Chicago reports.
Analysis:
With Artem Anisimov out Friday, look for Tanner Kero to get a chance to center Panarin and Patrick Kane. Panarin had been considered questionable for Friday's contest, but he'll remain in the lineup, on the heels of notching a helper in 17:28 worth of ice time in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Penguins.
