    This is the golden era for THE Florida Panthers and we are the gold standard of the NHL from top to bottom. I truly believe we will not only go back to back but be the first franchise in American pro sports to 3-peat since the Shaq-Kobe Lakers.

    Barkov-Reinhart-Tkachuk-Forsling-Ekblad-Bennett-Bobrovsky-Marchand-Lundell-Ekblad-Lustarinen-Jones-Kulikov-Verhaeghe and the lists goes on and on…..it’s an embarrassment of riches oh and Paul Maurice is our head coach.

    THE CUP IS STAYING IN SOUTH FLORIDA!!!

    It's the Golden Age of Panthers Hockey – and I'm proud to be part of it! Nothing makes me a prouder Panther than being loyal to my Cats since my first game back in 2006 when I started traveling from Switzerland to attend games. I've experienced the 7k+ fans games in 2014 in person and it was ugly – and I was at the 2024 SCF Game 7 Watch Party and the victory parade and it was an experience for a lifetime. Certainly paid off in ways I'd have never imagined!

    As a Panthers fan, you can totally give the franchise a lower grade than C (I'd give them D- personally) before Zito. Only bright spots were the beginning and the couple division titles in the 2010s. Just abysmal and being a fan was miserable for most of the time. So grateful for the owner, Viola, and of course for Zito

    I’m so glad I was wrong about Paul Maurice. I was SO pissed when they hired him. Who could’ve known that after the extremely bad start that year that they would end up where they are. LET’S GO CATS

    Thanks for covering and making content about the Panthers. We don't have enough in hockey talking about us, or covering us, and is why we hurt for many years.

    I started watching NHL in 2011 and decided to root for the Panthers. After 10 years I was sure the organization would never win the cup and they did.
    Still can't believe it and it happened so suddently. I was so happy.

    Before Zito, F – – Weiss should have been a captain. Every fan wanted it and it was super disrespectful. So many horrible draft picks. So many bad trades. Terrible washed up vets. Funny how state tax income, sand, palm trees, and a very low cost of living 20 years ago didn't do anything. I guess now FL and Tampa should also have their climates, women, sand, palm trees, taken away because it gives them an advantage. Also the internet, Canadiens didn't get internet to bring in fans back in the 50's so that's not fair. All of that BS makes every single game important. Seeing names in all star games, or 4 nations. We never had any of that. We would get players in only because every team has to have one player. 1 cup, no cups, a trip to the cup and never winning was still so much fun. Just getting into the 2nd round was amazing. Now its all on borrowed time because it might be another 30 years before this happens again.

    I have been a fan since '97, and the last few seasons still feel like a dream! Zito is the mastermind behind this success story. God bless him and every member of our team!

  14. @RIPJimmyA7X

    An Avs/Panthers SCF rematch would be fun this year and the speed and talent all over the ice would unmatched

  15. @HAL-9000-b6q

    Gotta love how the northerners are still whining that why Florida has a team and the non English speaking city Quebec doesn’t

  16. @cca12417

    I never could've imagined we'd be where we are even 5 years ago. Still feels surreal we won the Cup and could possibly repeat. Bill Zito saved this franchise. Also, having good ownership made a big difference. I remember growing up and we were a punchline of the NHL. Now we're what teams strive to be

  18. @curiousbrowza

    Adding Marchand ups the PP, PK.5-on-5, big game situations, toughness, and leadership. And he'll be upping his game. Arrows up FLA! 🧐

  25. @thebiffer100

    Finally I can attend games at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise after all these years having to endure fans cheering the opposition rather than our own Panthers and now the tides have turned and we have to now join the waiting list for season tickets. It's now OUR time….GO CATS!!!!!!

  27. @KensterFox

    What did "Panthers Hockey" mean before Bill Zito? It meant "Tomas Vokoun has a .923 save percentage and also a losing record."

  28. @ProwagenPer4mance

    Hopefully the Panthers can keep being a contender for many years, I worry due to all the draft picks being traded away, but then you look at their non-draft pickups like Verhaeghe, Bennett, Reinhart, Forsling, not to mention trades for Tkachuk, the deadline trades like Giroux, Tarasenko, Okposo and now Marchand. This gives me hope that they can be at the top a long time by keeping the core intact and picking up on players others have overlooked!
