With Gustav Forsling out week-to-week, Kiersted will be in the lineup on Tuesday and could get an extended run on the Panthers' blueline. The 23-year-old started the season in the AHL, scoring six points (2G / 4A) in 16 games. He has one assist in nine career NHL games.


Kiersted just signed with the Panthers after finishing his senior year at the University of North Dakota. The Panthers will waste no time getting him into the lineup, as he'll skate with veteran Anton Stralman on Saturday. The 22-year-old blueliner had three goals and 19 assists (22 points) in 29 games at UND.
