Status report
Skoog was recalled from Charlotte of the American Hockey League on Saturday but the forward is unlikely to play. ... Panthers coach Paul Maurice said there could be some game-time lineup decisions. ... Joshua, a forward, Carlo, a defenseman, and Stolarz, a goalie, each will miss Toronto's remaining three games because of injuries sustained during a 4-0 loss to the Washington Capitals on Wednesday. ... Villeneuve will make his NHL debut.
