Keith Yandle to lead Panthers' power play

Florida Panthers defenseman Keith Yandle will head the team's first power-play alongside Aaron Ekblad this season.

What It Means:

There had been some concern that Yandle wouldn't get an ample amount of power-play ice time, but those worries can be put to rest. Yandle, Ekblad, Aleksander Barkov, Jaromir Jagr and Jonathan Huberdeau will represent Florida's first unit.

Entering his age-30 season, Yandle is coming off a 47-point campaign (5 goals, 42 assists) that included a 50.3 Corsi For Percentage, and a 4.6 Relative Corsi For Percentage at Even Strength.
