Frolik was absent from Monday's practice due to an illness, but he's expected to play Tuesday against the Panthers, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 reports.

EDGE Analysis

Frolik has hit a bit of a hot streak recently collecting at least a point in each of the last four contests, with the streak starting on a hat trick against the Oilers. However, those three goals represent his only goals of the campaign, but he has collected eight assists to give him 11 points through 15 games. If he's unable to go Tuesday, Brandon Bollig would be the likely candidate to draw into the lineup in his place.
