Jason Garrison's lower body injury is related to his ankle. Garrison plans to start skating on Tuesday and he should be considered day-to-day at this point. He has 13 goals and 23 points in 54 games this season.

The Panthers will be without defenseman Jason Garrison (lower Body) for 7-10 days. This is not what the Panthers need as they occupy the top spot in the Southeast Division. Garrison has been a major reason for the team's success as he leads all NHL defensemen with 13 goals. His eight power-play goals lead the team. The 27-year-old was injured during Saturday's victory at New Jersey.

Jason Garrison's lower body injury is believed to be related to his foot. The severity of Garrison's condition is still not known. He left Saturday's game before it's conclusion and didn't play Sunday.

Jason Garrison left Saturday's 3-1 Florida victory over the New Jersey Devils and did not return. Garrison is dealing with what has been described by the club as a lower body injury. The Panthers also announced that defenseman Colby Robak has been recalled from San Antonio of the AHL for Sunday's game against the Islanders. Coach Kevin Dineen says Garrison is unlikely to play in Sunday's contest.

Jason Garrison registered his 10th assist of the season on Thursday. Garrison is better known for leading all defensemen with 13 goals, including eight scored with the man advantage. Beyond that, Garrison's fantasy value is limited.

Jason Garrison scored his 13th goal of the season, his eight on the power play, in the Panthers 3-1 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks. The undrafted free agent had only showed one season of offensive potential, his rookie season in the AHL where he scored 8 goals and 35 points, but other that he hasn't been a factor offensively in any league. Now all of a sudden he's the top goal scoring defenseman, and is on pace for 21 goals. Unfortunately he doesn't rack up many assists, but his goal output is welcomed, so keep rolling him out there.

The Florida Panthers are interesting in keeping Jason Garrison beyond the 2011-12 campaign. With Mike Weaver signed, Garrison is now the only Panthers' blueliner on the active roster that's scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this summer. Garrison, who is playing in his second full NHL season, has played a big role with Florida this season, scoring 11 goals and 17 points in 37 games.

Jason Garrison has been one of this season's made pleasant surprises. Garrison established himself with the Panthers last season as a solid defender who could chip in a bit offensively, but he's taken things to the next level in 2011-12 with 10 goals and 16 points in 36 games. That's just two points shy of the total he established in 2010-11 over the course of 73 contests. Garrison currently leads all blueliners in goals and could conceivably reach the 20-goal mark this season. That feat has only been reached by one other blueliner, Dustin Byfuglien, over the course of the previous two campaigns.

Jason Garrison potted his eighth goal of the season in Wednesday's win over the New York Rangers. He has been great on Florida's improved defense corps 21 games into this season. Garrison leads all NHL defensemen in goals and he has scored half of them with the man advantage despite seeing most of his time on the second unit. Garrison has averaged 24:09 of ice time per game in 2011-12, while posting 12 points and a plus-7 rating. If you are in a deep league and are in need of a defenseman then he appears to be a decent addition at this point.

Jason Garrison scored his sixth goal of the season on Thursday. That's one more than Garrison got in 2010-11, and we're only in mid-November. Unfortunately, Garrison hasn't gotten many assists and he only spends a minimal amount of time on the power-play, so his fantasy value is still mediocre.
