Matthew Tkachuk, the dynamic forward for the Florida Panthers, encountered a setback during Saturday night's game.

Although he remained on the ice, he spent most of the third period on the bench, visibly grappling with an injury.

It's believed to be an ongoing injury ever since he endured this hit:

With the Vegas Golden Knights just a single victory away from claiming the Stanley Cup, the Panthers face an uphill battle. To secure three consecutive wins and keep their championship hopes alive, they will require the full strength of their top players. Sadly for the Panthers, Tkachuk's status for the upcoming game remains uncertain, raising concerns for his availability. Having amassed an impressive 24 points in 20 games, Tkachuk is undeniably a strong contender for the esteemed Conn Smythe trophy.

However, the looming possibility of his absence in the crucial next game, set to take place in Vegas tomorrow, poses a significant challenge for the Panthers.
In his potential absence, the team will need to lean heavily on their depth and collective resilience to persevere in the face of adversity.
