Bobrovsky will make his 11th start of the season when the Panthers travel to Los Angeles on Thursday. Bobrovsky will be looking to rebound from a disappointing outing in his last start, when he gave up seven goals on 32 shots enroute to a 7-3 loss in Anaheim on Tuesday.

A Panthers top-six that is already injury-depleted will likely welcome Marchand back into the lineup on Saturday, after he missed the team's previous game to tend to a personal matter.
