Matt Gilroy News: Gilroy scored his first goal of the season in the Panthers' 4-3 loss to the Predators on Tuesday.

Gilroy scored his first goal of the season in the Panthers' 4-3 loss to the Predators on Tuesday.

Gilroy was a healthy scratch for the Panthers' first four games of the season, but has played the last three with Ryan Whitney taking his place in the press box. The former Hobey Baker winner is quickly gaining the confidence of the head coach Kevin Dineen as his ice time has increased each game. Gilroy has some offensive upside and is worth monitoring in deeper leagues.
