Report: Panthers listening to offers on Bobrovsky
The Florida Panthers will to listen to offers for their pending unrestricted free agents leading into Friday's trade deadline, including veteran goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky, according to TSN's Pierre LeBrun.
Bobrovsky, who's set to hit free agency this summer after seven seasons with the Panthers, carries a $10-million cap hit along with a 16-team no-trade list.
Florida lost its third consecutive game Tuesday and now sits 10 points back of the second wild-card seed in the Eastern Conference.
Although Bobrovsky is 22-19-1 this season with an .873 save percentage, he remains one of the most accomplished netminders of his generation. The 37-year-old is a two-time champion and two-time Vezina Trophy winner, plus he owns a .907 save percentage in 117 career playoff appearances. Bobrovsky also sits eighth on the all-time goalie win list with 451.
Possible suitors for Bobrovsky are unclear, but the Montreal Canadiens, Edmonton Oilers, and Vegas Golden Knights are among the playoff teams who've had issues between the pipes this season.
The trade deadline is Friday at 3 p.m. ET.
