SCF: GAME 1

June 4, 2025 - 8:21 PM ET

The day has finally come…Game 1 of the 2024-2025 Stanley Cup Finals is upon us! One team looks to go back-to-back, while the other seeks revenge following their SCF Game 7 loss last season While it remains to be seen who will come out on top, one thing is guaranteed when two juggernauts of...

SCF: GAME 2

June 6, 2025 - 4:22 PM ET

While it wasn’t the outcome us Panthers fans hoped for, Game 1 was an incredibly entertaining slugfest to watch. Definitely a game that’s “good for the league” in terms of getting/keeping fans interest in a series. I know a bunch of guys I work with who have slowly become hockey fans ove...

SCF: GAME 3

June 9, 2025 - 6:40 PM ET

Last Friday I missed the first three periods of Game 2. It killed me to not be able to watch it, but I had a game of my own. If you play men’s league hockey, you understand the draw to hit the ice no matter what’s going on… Alas! I did make it home to catch both OT periods and a fantasti...

SCF: GAME 4

June 12, 2025 - 8:49 PM ET

The 140 minutes of combined penalties (85 for EDM, 55 for FLA) have set the stage for what should no doubt be an explosive Game 4 tonight in Sunrise when these two powerhouse teams take the ice again after a two-day break. Seriously…how about that Game 3 heat? The Panthers got their fair share...

SCF: GAME 6

June 17, 2025 - 9:11 PM ET

Lord Stanley will be in attendance tonight in South Florida, as the Cats look to end the series at home and become back-to-back Stanley Cup champions..! I don’t want to say too much to jinx things, because this could be a big battle. Edmonton has their backs against the wall, clinging to life,...

Bennett Signs 8 x 8

June 27, 2025 - 10:28 PM ET

Wow…the Panthers have signed Sam Bennett to an 8 X 8 deal. While he said he wasn’t going anywhere, I wasn’t sure how they would make it work, but they have. Now the question becomes…who is a casualty of winning and this latest signing? Almost certainly Ekblad? Breaking: Sam Ben...
