Panthers enjoy early success against Neuvirth; defeat Capitals
Judging from the final score alone, you might conclude this game was a back-and-forth matchup with the Florida Panthers barely slipping past to win. The last part of that statement would be correct, but the game was anything but close until the final minutes. Florida dominated the first two periods...
Slow-starting Panthers fall to Lightning in overtime
Maybe they had a bit too much turkey the night before. Yes, it was a sleepy one in Sunrise on Black Friday resulting in a grand total of 3 goals over 63 minutes. The Tampa Bay Lightning and Florida Panthers usually meet up in a scoring showdown ending as a one goal game, but those games rarely felt...
We See BB&T
Following a recently-announced buyout of BankAtlantic, banking giant BB&T will push forward in a removing all reminders of the former's presence at the Florida Panthers' Broward County facility. In essence: adios BankAtlantic Center, hola some variation of BB&T Center/Arena/Garden/Coliseum...
Divisionally speaking, just what have these guys done?
For those understandably curious as to how Florida's newest Panthers have historically performed at the BankAtlantic Center - and perhaps more importantly, around the NHL's Southeast Division - walk this way... <!-- BEGIN WIDGET --> Marco Sturm #0 / Left Wing / ...
Cats Recap: Clawless Panthers shut out in second straight game, fall to Sabres 3-0
We're only six games into this young NHL season, and the Florida Panthers have been shut out twice already, this time with a pretty listless effort at home against the Buffalo Sabres, who walked out of Sunrise with a 3-0 victory. For the second straight game, the Panthers were shut out and only...
Poll: Best Panthers game-presentation addition (or subtraction)
A refrain which gained legs quickly on Saturday was "This is a lot like a hockey game"...and it wasn't in reference to the on-ice product. A collection of new arena features found their way onto the BankAtlantic Center's "to-do" list over the summer which made their public debut only hours ago. So...

Video: Sights and Sounds from Florida Panthers Home Opener
Of course we'll lead off with the well-played but not soon-to-get-old Erik Gudbranson vs Steve Downie fracas. Most memorable portion? The blink-and-you-missed-it "flinch" move, which ascended to South Florida Legend status, just like that. An instantaneous "I was in the building when..."...

They Ain't the Isles; Panthers Simply Outworked vs. Penguins
I hate making excuses to pardon a loss, but before we get too far lets get them out there and out of the way. The Pittsburgh Penguins, though star-less they may be, are still a very good team. The Panthers players are still getting used to each other. Jose Theodore had sub-par (at best) defense in...
