Panthers' Tobias Bjornfot: Called up from minors

Bjornfot was recalled from AHL Charlotte on Monday.

Bjornfot's promotion to the NHL roster comes after Dmitry Kulikov (upper body) was designated for injured reserve Friday. Even though the 24-year-old Bjornfot has been added to the 23-man roster, he's far from guaranteed to feature in the lineup against the Flyers on Monday, and he would need to edge out Uvis Balinskis for a spot on the blue line.
