The Panthers could be a contender this year if they can keep healthy. No real big name players but some with potential. If you get a chance got to there web site they have done a great job with it. Been to numerous home games for the Panthers and it is weird going to hockey games in shorts and t-shirts. Oh well.

Little bit of trivia but can anyone remember what player started the tradition of the Rats in Florida and what year it was.

That was 1995-96 Season and Scott Mellanby. They were playing Calgary and he one timed it against the wall. He did score 2 goals that night.

Awesome your right. They called it a RAT Trick using the rat and two goals.
