Panthers' Erik Gudbranson: Scratched Saturday

Gudbranson (undisclosed) didn't suit up Saturday against the Hurricanes.

Gudbranson's regular season campaign comes to a close having notched a mere nine points in 64 games. While the defender rarely hits the scoresheet, he's capable of logging big minutes for the Panthers, averaging 20:07 of ice time and skating for more than 22 minutes twice in his past five outings. That certainly will be useful for the Cats in the playoffs.
