Panthers' Aaron Ekblad: Back at it Tuesday

Ekblad (concussion) will return to the lineup Tuesday night against the visiting Hurricanes, George Richards of the Miami Herald reports.

Analysis:

Ekblad, who has 10 goals and 11 assists countered by an ugly minus-22 rating, will be looking for a strong rebound from a four-game absence. He's missed tough road contests against the Blue Jackets, Rangers and Penguins, but will be ready to reprise his role as a power-play weapon on the top defensive pair with Keith Yandle.
