Latest news
Forsling (upper body) will play against Chicago on Sunday, according to Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.
Forsling appeared to be hit in the face by the puck late in Thursday's 4-0 loss to Pittsburgh, but he won't miss additional playing time. He has earned one goal, two points, 13 shots on net, seven blocked shots and five hits in 10 appearances this season.

Forsling was hit up high by a puck in Thursday's game versus the Penguins and did not return, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.
Forsling's injury occurred late in the third period, which may explain the lack of an update on his status. The Panthers are off until Sunday in Chicago, so he'll have a couple of days to bounce back if the injury is minor.

Forsling (upper body) will suit up Sunday in Anaheim, per Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.
Forsling was deemed a game-time decision Saturday after missing Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sharks. The steady left-shot blueliner will slot in on the top pairing next to Dmitry Kulikov, as Aaron Ekblad (personal) isn't in Sunday's lineup.

Forsling (upper body) is expected to be a game-time decision for Sunday's tilt in Anaheim, per Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.
Forsling missed Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to San Jose, but he skated briefly Saturday. If he plays, then he will likely serve in a top-four capacity. The Panthers placed Aleksander Barkov (knee) on long-term injured reserve Saturday, and recalled Alex Petrovic from AHL Charlotte for additional defense insurance.

Forsling (upper body) won't play Thursday versus the Sharks.
Forsling was a late scratch after reportedly participating in warmups. The defenseman didn't skate in practice Wednesday, but there was no other indication that he was dealing with an injury. Uvis Balinskis will play Thursday in place of Forsling, who can be considered day-to-day until more information is made available.

Forsling scored the game-winning goal in Tuesday's 1-0 overtime victory over the Hurricanes.
It was a sloppy, chippy game to begin the regular season, but Forsling prevented it from going to a shootout when he blasted a one-timer past Brandon Bussi from the blue line with less than five seconds left in OT. Forsling managed only two goals in the 2025-26 regular season, ending a streak of four straight seasons in double digits, but the 30-year-old blueliner made an immediate statement to begin the current campaign that he intends to be more productive.
