The past couple of weeks have been thrilling for Florida Panthers fans. Just over two weeks ago, the Panthers secured their second consecutive Stanley Cup championship. Since then, fans have witnessed memorable celebrations, an exciting parade, the NHL draft, and the beginning of free agency. Similar to last year, the Panthers took to the streets to celebrate their victory with supporters following their triumph over the Edmonton Oilers in the Stanley Cup finals.
Unlike last June, this year’s parade was blessed with sunny weather, drawing hundreds of thousands of fans along Fort Lauderdale Beach’s A1A. During the offseason, the Panthers stayed active, notably re-signing key unrestricted free agents such as Sam Bennett, Aaron Ekblad, and Brad Marchand, ensuring the team remains competitive. Although it’s been a few weeks since their last game, revisiting the intense six-game series against Edmonton highlights how Florida gradually dominated in the latter half, proving once again they are the superior team for a second straight year.
