Panthers' Aleksander Barkov: Posts two points in losing effort

Barkov scored a goal and added a power-play assist during Friday's loss to Minnesota.

Since returning from a back injury, Barkov has totaled eight goals, 14 points and 36 shots through 15 games. He's an emerging star, and injuries have been the only thing to slow the 21-year-old pivot down the past two seasons. View Barkov as a set-and-forget player in seasonal leagues and a worthwhile option in daily contests when the matchup is favorable.
