Florida Panthers center Anton Lundell found the back of the net twice in their victory over the Boston Bruins. Lundell scored his first goal of the afternoon on a rebound attempt in the crease in the opening frame. Later in the second, Lundell would score the eventual game-winner on a wrist shot. This was a nice breakout game for the 23-year-old, as he was held to just one point through the first three games of the campaign. With Alexander Barkov (ankle) and Matthew Tkachuk (illness) both sidelined, Lundell is worth a look in DFS formats as he should continue to see an increase in ice time in the Florida top-6 for the time being.
Florida Panthers center Anton Lundell did not practice on Thursday and is considered day-to-day with a lower-body injury, per David Dwork of The Hockey News. Panthers head coach Paul Maurice has said the injury is "minor," so Lundell's availability for the start of the season shouldn't be in doubt. Lundell provides solid production from a middle-six role for the Panthers, having registered 112 points (43 goals, 69 assists) in 216 career games. He also won an impressive 54.9 percent of his faceoffs in 2023-24.
Florida Panthers center Anton Lundell recorded an assist on Vladimir Tarasenko's game-winning goal in Saturday's 2-1 victory. It's his ninth postseason assist, which has Lundell ranked third on the team, behind only Matthew Tkachuk and Aleksander Barkov. Lundell's productive work as a third-line center in the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs includes three goals in 17 games. With the Panthers generating offense throughout the lineup, it's going to be very difficult to stop them from winning the championship.
Anton Lundell Comes Up Huge In Series-Clinching Win

He could end up playing a larger role next year with Florida and would then be a sleeper in fantasy.

Lundell has been a solid middle-six piece for the Panthers and finished last season with 33 points (12 goals, 21 assists) across 73 outings. He could pick up a few extra minutes with Bennett on the shelf, although Eetu Luostarinen will be his direct replacement as the second-line center.
