By Eric Mullin • Published June 24, 2024 For the first time in franchise history the Florida Panthers are Stanley Cup champions. The Florida Panthers have gone from runners-up to champions.

The Panthers paid Schmidt just $800,000 last year, got a deep playoff run out of him, and watched him cash in elsewhere. They’ve created a revolving door of plug-and-play veterans that works.

After back-to-back Stanley Cups, a former champion snubbed Matthew Tkachuk, Brad Marchand, and Sam Bennett from being named the Florida Panthers' game-changer.

It's been a near perfect NHL offseason for the Florida Panthers, but they needed to make one more move in the summer.

Florida has signed blueliner Mike Benning to a one-year, two-way deal. Benning, 23, is entering his third pro season with the Panthers franchise after a standout career at the University of Denver.

Absolutely sickening. If the Panthers don’t win the Cup, blowing a 3-0 lead in a home game with a chance to go up 3-1 will forever be one of the most haunting nights in franchise history.

The two-time reigning champion Florida Panthers will open the season in the first game against the Chicago Blackhawks on Oct. 7 in Sunrise, Florida.
