Kane has had a down year in 2023, scoring 16 goals with 29 assists (45 points) in 54 games while with the 30th-placed Blackhawks.

Gogolev has 21 goals, 48 points and 28 PIMs with the Newfoundland Growlers (ECHL) and has been dealt alongside Joey Anderson, a conditional 2025 1st round pick, and a 2026 2nd round pick from the Maple Leafs for Jake McCabe, Sam Lafferty, a conditional 2024 5th round pick, and a conditional 2025 5th round pick.

The NHLPA and NHL announced today that Panthers' goalie Spencer Knight will be unavailable for an indefinite period of time while he receives care from the player assistance program of the NHL and NHLPA. Under the terms of the joint program, Knight will continue to be paid while receiving treatment. He will return to the club when cleared for on-ice competition by the program administrators.

Knight has a 9-8-3 record, 3.18 GAA and .901 SV% but has been reassigned to the Charlotte Checkers (AHL) in a surprise move Wednesday. Alex Lyon will head up to the Panthers as the 21-year-olds replacement.

Knight allowed four goals on 33 shots (.879 SV%) for his fourth loss in five starts as he was defeated by Dallas in his previous start 37 days ago (injury). The 21-year-old has had an up-and-down season, which led to his 9-7-3 record, 3.05 GAA and .906 SV%. He takes on the St. Louis Blues, who snapped a five-game losing streak with a win over Arizona in their previous game.
