Alnefelt made his NHL debut Thursday in relief. He made seven saves on 10 shots in a 9-3 loss to the Panthers.

He replaced Maxime Lagace. The Panthers were all over the Bolts on Thursday -- 15 of their 18 skaters recorded at least one point. And Alnefelt didn't have much of a chance on goals by Anthony Duclair, Aaron Ekblad and Aleksander Barkov. He's a decent prospect, but he clearly needs more development time in the AHL.
