Analysis:

Upshall was held out of the third period of Tuesday's game against the Kings, suggesting he might have suffered some kind of injury earlier in the contest. The Panthers haven't indicated what's ailing him, so he'll just be considered day-to-day for now. With Upshall unavailable to play, recent AHL call-up Rocco Grimaldi will suit up for his second straight game.
