Sam Reinhart did not play for the Florida Panthers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals against Carolina on Saturday night because of a left knee injury, one that happened Thursday when he was skated into by the Hurricanes’ Sebastian Aho.

FORT LAUDERDALE — Florida’s Sam Reinhart will not be on the ice for Saturday’s Game 3 vs. Carolina after missing most of the Panthers’ Game 2 win with a lower-body injury, coach Paul Maurice said. “Sam won’t play tonight,” Maurice said Saturday morning. “We’ll list him as day-to-day.”

Reinhart suffered a lower-body injury during Game 2 at the 5:09 mark of the second period when Carolina's Sebastian Aho ran into him.
