Panthers lineup tonight: Florida's projected lineup for Game 4 against Toronto Maple Leafs | Stanley Cup Playoffs, Round 2, May 11, 2025

The Florida Panthers are back in action on Sunday night for Game 4 of their second-round series against the Toronto Maple Leafs at Amerant Bank Arena. Toronto holds a 2-1 series lead; however, Florida has made things interesting with their thrilling 5-4 overtime win in Game 3 on Friday night.

The Panthers (98 points) and Maple Leafs (108 points) finished among the best in the Eastern Conference during the regular season as the first and third seeds in the Atlantic Division. Florida took Toronto down in five games during their second-round matchup back in 2023.

Nobody is listed with an injury for the Panthers; however, it's been speculated that some are playing through ailments. That does come to be expected during the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Mackie Samoskevich, Jesper Boqvist, and Nico Sturm are all possibilities to re-enter the lineup, though Paul Maurice's newly configured fourth line did well for him in Game 3.
