Great video, but missed the biggest ingredient, the guy that should have been GM of the year at least once if not twice by now, Bill Zito. He inherited a team that had not won a round in decades, with a 10 million dollar goalie who was underproducing and unmovable, and turned them into a cup contender after pulling off the biggest NHL trade in decades and finding gem after gem on waivers or through trades. The fact that he did not win GM of the year last season is simply robbery.

Watching this team now, I am reminded of how dominant the Red Wings were in the late 90s, and watching my Panthers get absolutely manhandled by them. There's another parallel to Detroit. Mike Vernon was brought in to bring them to the promised land. He underperformed and the Detroit faithful soured on him. In the '97 Finals, I remember seeing a fan in the stands holding a sign that said, "Vernon, I apologize." I think I owe Sergei Bobrovsky an apology too.

Come Playoffs, they will possibly nearly murder you and still find ways with Bobrovsky to defend against the few chances you are able to create throughout the game.

They played Boston hard, they were coming off a great year the previous year, and they hit their stride and went deep. That’s hockey parity for ya.

Don't forget about Stolarz

Not sure why fans across the league were still treating Florida like some surprise team heading into this season. They literally had the best record 2 years ago.

I am also afraid of the Panthers. They just look like a team built for the playoffs that are on a mission to win it all this year.

Panthers Season Ticket Holder here, great breakdown of what makes our team so lethal. Sometimes I wish our d-men pinched more, but earlier in the year we gave up a ton of breakaways so, perhaps now they're slightly more conservative.

I don't understand why people underestimate the Panthers, the year before knocking out the Bruins they got the President's Trophy. Last year they had a mediocre season and then returned to their President's Trophy winning form just in time for the playoffs (and just when the Bruins were getting hit by injuries). They're a dominant team all around, solid offense, defense, and goaltending (Toronto take notes). Also Paul Maurice is a great coach.

The Panthers are reminding more and more of the 2011 Bruins and is leaving me completely envious to their style of play. I miss the grittiness that the Bruins used to play with and I hope seeing Florida do well will create a spark across the NHL to play more aggressively like in the early 00s and 10s. With the refs being wildly inconsistent the players need to police themselves now more than ever and seeing that aggression and heart in the NHL isn't dead I hope the trend continues towards more physicality in the sport we all love.

Glad to see the Panthers thriving. I can’t stand smarmy Tkachuk but Sasha and Bob are absolute beauties and as a Jets fan I’ll root for Paul Maurice any day of the week. I also loved them as a kid back in the Jovo days.

When we hired Maurice and I saw last season what he was developing o did not worry, I knew worse case scenario we regress a little but will be super competitive in the playoffs. This year, Zito continues to show what an amazing GM he is in picking up scraps from others for nothing and do roster building that’s perfect for the coach’s style. We got somewhat bigger, definitely kept the grittiness and aggressiveness and I firmly believe it is paying dividends and Stolarz has been a great substitute to allow Boborovsky to rest and get great results as well. I think getting to the cup final is our floor at this point, I don’t see any other team with the physical will to match us. I think we probably face off with either the Knights or Canucks, and I think we can take the Canucks out relatively easily while the Knights would be a tougher series but this round two matchup I think we take series in 6 or 7. Only way this does not play out is if the Canes can keep up with the bruising checking, I know Rod instills that mentality but not sure that their personnel can pull it off as well as we do. Thanks for showing something positive about the Panthers, in the media, especially Toronto and northern original six we get no love or even a mention. People still make excuses for last year and say that their teams lost to us as opposed to us taking it. If we lift the cup it will be hard to ignore us up north.

Florida has been strong for years, they've just honed the roster a lot to get what they want. Very difficult team to play, but always a really entertaining game. It's one of the few teams that I'll go out of my way to see their games, but they aren't my team.

Great video! Happy to see the panthers getting some respect, it’s been a long ride. They still have their occasional off nights but hopefully with their success the last few season they will get the respect they deserve.

Their style isn't aggression, it's extreme defense. Playing suffocating defense is what is shutting down potential breakouts and giving them takeaways. That's the opposite mentality as playing aggressive.

Been going to panthers games for 20+ years and the excitement has never been higher. I’m so proud of this team and can’t wait to see what they do this year. Hopefully we’ll see a cup this year.

Great to see FLA get some credit and coverage, lets go cats!

lol i love it. Now they got 2 former allstars and talented shooters in the trade deadline, one of them T scored 2 goals last night. The Panthers are in first place and have the most points in the NHL. They keep getting bettter and better and our backup goalie is better than last years. This is the Panthers year to WIN IT ALL!

This is excellent hockey content. Well done. *subscribed*

As a canes fan i am so happy we thwomped the Florida panthers 4-0

I hate this team because im a lightning fan, but holy hell dude. They are the most ferocious team on the ice right now

Florida is built to succeed in the playoffs, not doubt about that.

Florida is tough,but Vegas was tougher last year.I expect a return bout this year.The Vegas defense is extra large,and that gives them the advantage in playoff hockey.It's been so obvious since 2019,when 4 big and mean D men took a marginally talented Habs team to the final behind Cary Price.Those 4 were merciless.

They have been a lot of fun to watch. If the Hawks aren't playing, Florida is one of the teams I look to see if they are on. I watched the Ott-Fla game yesterday and I was hoping for Tkachuk versus Tkachuk.

Their mother and grandmother warned then off of doing that. It's a family thing and they agreed to never fight each other on the ice. Keith, their father had no say in it. (I spoke to him about it at a game here). Brady threatened Barkov and then Matty threatened Stutzle. That's the extent of it. But watching Bob go after Brady was hilarious.

​@@FLBlazerEns And the camera was right smack on Brady Tkachuk when he gave a f-u to Bobrovsky. Hilarious. Read his lips no on ice mic's required.

Excellent video. Very enlightening. I will watch them in light of this.

everyone used to make fun of us, and now everyone fears us 🤭 i absolutely love it

This is a great video and you analyzed my Florida Panthers perfectly. Thank you for making this.

My take on the Panthers? They have the refs totally confused! They commit so many infractions the refs can't possibly call them all, so they let a lot go. That gets the other team pissed off, and then they start taking penalties. I saw this first hand Tuesday night in Dallas. 🤬🤬🤬

Finally! As a panthers fan it makes me so happy seeing people talk about them more lately! Thanks Hockey Psychology!

I love teams like this. I will be cheering Florida along in the playoffs because my team is probably not making it.

Their run last year reminded me of the STL Blues Cup run.

I'm enjoying the see-saw battle between BOS/FLA. Im hoping that BOS makes some solid moves before the deadline.

Love it!! Look for my Panthers!! They going far again!!

The last team to win the cup that had such a vicious forecheck was the 2009 penguins, these Panthers are similar but have more size and physicality whereas that Penguins team had speedy, grinder type wingers with Elite offensive centers.

Well all i have to say is as a sabres fan well just got to play more tougher,aggressive and smarter at hockey don't let these panthers underestimate the way other teams play hockey

I’m not a Panthers fan but I think this notion that last seasons run was some Cinderella story is lazy. It all comes down to squeaking into the playoffs…and it ignores the fact the season prior they had the best record in the NHL, fell short in the playoffs…then made a franchise altering move by trading away their best offense playoff for another star player who brings the exact type of style needed for playoffs

Thanks , that was a great breakdown. I'm a fan. Just got my bobble heads today!

Great video! Go Cats!!

This was great! Thank you

Do a breakdown on the Pittsburgh penguins and what might happen ahead of the trade deadline or if the pens still have a shot of playoff hockey. Also talk about what you think Kyle Dubas might do!!

Love the vids I always look forward seeing every video 🥅🏒 on your channel your my top hockey content guy😎

I've been a hockey fan since 2009. I love this video because it shows defensive breakdowns & strategies in a way that makes sense. Yet, doesn't overcomplicate things.

Well, here we are...

Great video..I love the panthers too

Since last year I've been impressed with Florida. Awesome team, and i wish my team Toronto Maple Leafs would play like that not to mention Florida dummied the Leafs last playoffs had them skating scared. Sad but true.

Coming into this season, I figured that Florida would be at the very least a good team that would find it's groove once the injured guys from last year's run healed up + plus the summer losses of Gudas & Duclair & hoping Bobrovsky's postseason form holds up. I didn't see best team in the east(one point ahead of the Rangers) or fighting for the President's Trophy(two points behind the Canucks, who nobody saw) coming. All i'll say is this, Florida is my favorite to win the east again, then the Rangers, then the Bruins.

love these breakdowns bro! keep up the good work!

Well done...I am in Florida and really doubted them last year and they made a believer out of me.

need a video dissecting the Red Wings and their chemistry and performance as of late. theyve totally switched up since the new year and went from good to noticeable.
