Status report
Gibson will start after he was shaken up in the second period and did not return during a 3-0 win at the New Jersey Devils on Sunday. ... Larkin did not skate Tuesday but is with the team and the center is getting treatment after leaving a 3-1 loss to the Panthers on Friday. ... Perron skated in a regular jersey Tuesday; the forward was acquired in a trade with the Ottawa Senators on Thursday and is recovering from a sports hernia. ... Marchand will not play; the forward will be visiting doctors due to a lingering injury which cost him 10 of 15 games prior to the Olympic break, according to Florida coach Paul Maurice. ... Reinhart also will not play; it's an opportunity for the forward to get a few extra days off, said Maurice, who expects Reinhart to return against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday. ... Hinostroza will make his Panthers debut after being acquired in a trade with the Minnesota Wild on Friday.
