The Lightning and Panthers played the first of five-straight games - three in the preseason, two to start the 2019-20 regular season - Tuesday at the BB&T Center in Sunrise, the Cats doubling up the Bolts to drop them to 1-3-1 in the preseason.
With Brayden Point injured until at least the end of October, there’s a real chance young Volkov gets a spot on the team.
