Per Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site, coach Paul Maurice said Saturday that Tkachuk (illness) is on track to play Tuesday against the Wild.
Tkachuk will miss his fifth straight game versus Vegas on Saturday. The feisty winger has two assists and seven shots on goal in two appearances this season. Once he's healthy, Tkachuk will return to a top-six role alongside Carter Verhaeghe and Sam Bennett.
