Wallmark will come out of the Chicago lineup on Sunday.

Wallmark picked up one assist in 13:33 TOI in Friday's win over the Red Wings. Despite picking up three assists in his last two games, Wallmark will sit on Sunday and allow Carl Soderberg to make his Blackhawks debut.

The Panthers have acquired Lucas Wallmark, Erik Haula, Chase Priskie and Eetu Luostarinen from the Hurricanes for Vincent Trocheck.

A fourth-round pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft, Wallmark established himself as an effective two-way forward over the last two seasons. The 24-year-old has 11 goals and 12 assists through 60 games this season despite playing less than 13 minutes a game. Wallmark is set to become a restricted free-agent on July 1.

The Hurricanes have sent Lucas Wallmark to Charlotte (AHL).

Wallmark was a healthy scratch for the last two games after appearing in two games a week ago. With Lee Stempniak set to make his season debut on Tuesday, Wallamark returns to the AHL, where he has 23 points (7G / 16A) in 20 games.

Chris Mason will start tonight for the #preds

Mason allowed five goals on 38 shots in a loss to the Red Wings on Thursday. The Blue Jackets likely weren't happy that the Preds started Mason vs. the Wings in the midst of a playoff race. But the Jackets will see Mason tonight so it evens out. I wouldn't trust Mason tonight.
