With last night’s blowout loss to the Ovechkin-less Washington Capitals, it’s safe to say the Panthers will not be participating in this season’s playoffs. The Cats dropped to 13th in the east, 8 points behind 8th seed Boston with just 14 games remaining. This will be the 9th straight season that there is no postseason [...]
In order to make a fair judgment of the Florida Panthers deadline moves, a timeline needs to be established. The trade deadline was just the end of the beginning of what is supposed to be a four step process, all of which I’ll get into, hopefully without rambling too much and losing your interest.
The Panthers’ [...]
To kick off what should be an interesting 48 hours leading up to Wednesday’s trade deadline, the Pittsburgh Penguins acquired defenseman Jordan Leopold from the Florida Panthers for a 2nd round pick in 2010.
This morning, Karl Selvig, Florida Panthers correspondent here at The Hockey Writers, indicated that the Leopold trade was potentially the first of [...]
The Florida Panthers organization made headlines before the Olympic break when a letter from co-owners Cliff Viner and Stu Siegel to season ticket holders called out the team and promised big changes. One change was made before the break, sending Dominic Moore to Montreal in exchange for a 2nd round draft pick in 2011.

The streak is sorrowful. The numbers are numbing. The feeling is forlorn. What else can be said about the state of the Florida Panthers? Well to start, the facts. Winless in 4 straight. 13 goals scored in the last 11 games. Needless to say, the Cats haven’t scored 3 goals in 1 game since January [...]
TAMPA BAY, Fla.- The Calgary Flames emerged from their two-game swing through Florida with three points in the standings. Calgary defeated the Florida Panthers 2-1 Friday and lost in overtime to the Tampa Bay Lightning Saturday.
Miikka Kiprusoff saved 33 of 36 shots in the two contests. His magnificent goaltending was complemented by barrages of shots [...]
My last article centered around the fact that the Panthers were somehow finding ways to win despite an extraordinarily anemic offense. Tomas Vokoun was coming off of a 3-shutout-in-8-game streak. Fast forward 4 more games, and the story remains the same. No offense to speak of, add one shutout to Vokoun’s NHL leading tally. [...]
The following statistic may astound you, so you might want to find a chair (although why you would be standing and using your computer is beyond me…). The Florida Panthers are 5-1-2 in their last 8 games. What, not shocked? What if I told you the Panthers had scored a total of 4 goals in [...]
The Florida Panthers are back to their winning ways. After closing out 2009 with a 1-4-0 stretch of mediocrity, the Cats have managed to climb back into the playoff hunt with a 5-2-1 record since New Years Day. And it’s not just that they’ve started winning again, it’s the manner in which they are doing [...]
