Status report
Due to salary cap constraints, the Panthers are only carrying 20 players. Defenseman Matt Kiersted is traveling with the team but is non-rostered. … Clutterbuck, a forward who is on injured reserve but has been skating with the team, is "doubtful" for the opener according to Islanders general manager Lou Lamoriello. ... Clutterbuck remained on the ice following New York's optional morning skate along with Wahlstrom, a forward, and defensemen Aho and Johnston.
