Panther Pourri: A Florida Hockey Now Podcast

George Richards joins Jacob, Alex, and TJ to discuss the draft and free agency so far and Jacob takes issue with the way Alex pronounces one player's name.

Happy draft day!  David Dwork (The Hockey News) joins Jacob, Alex, and TJ to discuss what exciting ideas the Florida Panthers might have planned for the 2023 NHL entry draft (spoiler alert: it isn't drafting)

The Florida Panthers won't be doing much in the early goings of this year's NHL draft, so Andrew Imber joins Jacob, Alex, and TJ to cover the draft appropriately: by drafting our own starting lineup of a hockey team comprised exclusively of video game characters!  Check out the poll @PantherPourri on Twitter to vote on which team you think is the best!

Thank you all for tuning in this season.  Sadly, your Florida Panthers were unable to mount a historic comeback and the Vegas Golden Knights have won the Stanley Cup in 5 games.  Jacob, Alex, and TJ talk about game 5, recap the series as a whole, and discuss what comes next for the Florida Panthers.

The Vegas Golden Knights have taken a 3-1 stranglehold in the Stanley Cup Final.  George Richards (Florida Hockey Now) joins Jacob, Alex, and TJ to discuss what went wrong (and almost right) in game 4 and to declare the Florida Panthers' season over for the third time in the last three months.

The Florida Panthers just won their first Stanley Cup Final game in franchise history.  Jacob, Alex, and TJ discuss the growing legend of Carter Verhaeghe, the special teams disparity, one of the greatest goal calls in Panthers history, and more on this historic episode

Yikes.  The Panthers fall into a 2-0 series hole against Vegas after what may well be the worst game of the season, context considered.  Jacob, Alex, and TJ talk about lots of things that happened in this game and definitely don't just spend half an hour ranting about officiating.  I promise they talk about what happened on the ice during play too.

I'm sad.

The day has finally arrived.  The Florida Panthers play for the Stanley Cup starting now.  George Richards (Florida Hockey Now) joins Jacob, Alex, and TJ to take one last look at the Stanley Cup Final matchups.  The guys discuss the similarities between the Panthers and the Vegas Golden Knights, the intrinsic link between the two, and give their final series predictions.

Liam McHugh, formerly of NHL on NBC and now with NHL on TNT and MLS Season Pass on Apple TV, joins the show to discuss the great run the Panthers have made and preview the Stanley Cup Final, along with telling a story or two about his time on the TNT panel with Wayne Gretzky, Henrik Lundqvist, and more.

Hockey has taken over the hearts of South Florida.  Mike Ryan (The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz) joins Jacob, Alex, and TJ to talk about the lifelong Panthers fans that this cup run is creating and why Matthew Tkachuk is the superstar we've been waiting for all along.

Florida Panthers PA announcer Andrew Imber joins Jacob, Alex, and TJ to talk about what it means as both the PA announcer and a lifelong fan to see the Panthers in the Stanley Cup Final.  Andrew also tells the story of the rat that he saw at the watch party, his favorite goal calls of the playoffs thus far, and what games he's been playing between rounds.

(It was the We Want Florida shirt, by the way)

GET OUT YOUR BROOMS, THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE HEADED TO THE STANLEY CUP FINAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Florida Panthers are one (1) win away from the Stanley Cup Finals.  Jacob, Alex, and TJ break down Sergei Bobrovsky's first career playoff shutout, the Panthers' identity shift, and the context behind this Cinderella Story.

Friend of the show Josh Appel returns to celebrate the unbelievable Panthers win that gives them a 2-0 series lead in the Eastern Conference Finals. 

You're tired, we're tired, everybody's tired.  The upshot is that the Panthers have a 1-0 series lead in the eastern conference finals.  Jacob, Alex, and TJ react to the sixth-longest game in NHL history in a way that is definitely focused and composed, featuring a new mystery sponsor with questionable motives.

The Florida Panthers are set for their first conference finals appearance in nearly 30 years. George Richards (Florida Hockey Now) joins Jacob, Alex, and TJ to discuss how the Panthers stack up against the Carolina Hurricanes, how they think the series will go, and who might be a surprise X-factor for the Cats.

...And now we're in the conference finals. Roy Bellamy (The Dan Lebatard Show ft. Stugotz) joins Jacob and Alex to recap the Florida Panthers' series-clinching game 5 win against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

The Florida Panthers are one win away from the Eastern Conference Finals.  Jacob and Alex break down the heart-pounding game 3 and look ahead to what the Panthers need to do to close out the series.

Bob deserves every penny!
