How Florida Panthers can win their First Stanley Cup

 The Florida Panthers have never won a Stanley Cup in the existence of their franchise; the closest they came to winning a Stanley Cup was in 1996 when they lost in the Stanley Cup Finals to the Colorado Avalanche. If the Florida Panthers want to win a Stanley Cup, they should make these moves.


At the expansion draft, one trade is made:

Florida Panthers trade Keith Yandle to the Seattle Kraken for a 2021 2nd round pick, 2021 3rd rd pick. If the Kraken make the playoffs, the Panthers get an additional 2022 2nd rd pick.

Keith Yandle would have to waive his no-move clause, but I think he would be he would get more ice time with the Seattle Kraken, who could use a veteran defenseman like Yandle.


Florida Panthers lose Chris Driedger to the Seattle Kraken in the expansion draft.


Before the 2021 draft, two trades are made:


Florida Panthers trade Anton Stralman to the Columbus Blue Jackets for a 2021 4th round pick.

The Panthers unload Stralman's contract, while the Blue Jackets get a veteran defenseman that fits into Columbus' system.


The Panthers also trade Anthony Duclair, Lucas Wallmark, Gustav Forsling to the Dallas Stars for Jamie Oleksiak, Jason Dickinson.

The Panthers add Jamie Oleksiak and Jason Dickinson, two solid players who can be stop-gap solutions until their prospects are NHL ready.


At the 2021 Draft, the Florida Panthers trade pick 35 to the Arizona Coyotes for picks 44, 2022 3rd round pick.

22-Zachary L'Heureux

44-Logan Mailloux

67-Fyodor Svechkov

Florida Panthers draft three very good prospects in Zachary L'Heureux, Logan Mailloux, and Fyodor Svechkov; all three prospects should play a key role on the team down the road.


Florida Panthers re-sign a few players:

Brandon Montour-2yrs/4M per

Alexander Wennberg-3yrs/2.8M per

The Florida Panthers make it to the 2nd round of the playoffs in the 2021-22 season but lose in 6 games to the Carolina Hurricanes.


Before the 2022 draft, one major trade is made:

The Red Wings get two savy veteran players in Hornqvist and Gudas, while the Panthers get Michael Rasmussen, a solid young power forward and a draft pick.

The Rangers get more depth and versatility in the lineup with the Additions of Verhaeghe and Wennberg, while the Panthers get Vitaly Kravtsov, a very skilled right-winger to play with Barkov and Huberdeau.

Fantasy Hockey Forwards to Trade For

Here is a list of Players who you should consider trading for in Fantasy Hockey. Tage Thompson Tage Thompson had very high expectations of him heading into this season but has been a massive disappointment to this point in the season with only 7 goals, 8 assists, 4 PPP, 60 SOG, and 99 FW. Thompson has been better after coming back from injury and you would think that he is going to eventually start putting points in bunches. Because of how bad Thompson's statline is this season. it would be a good idea to trade for him because you may not have to give up a lot in return.  Elias Lindholm Elias Lindholm is another player who has had a slow start to the season with only 7 goals, 10 assists, 3 PPP, 68 SOG, and 297 FW so far this season. Lindholm is definitely going to want to play better if he wants to increase his value for his next contract and also showcase himself for a trade at the deadline. If Lindholm gets dealt to a contending team, his fantasy value would drastically improve b

TIPS FOR DECIDING WHO TO KEEP FOR KEEPER/DYNASTY LEAGUES

Keeper fantasy leagues are a variation of traditional fantasy sports leagues where participants are allowed to keep a certain number of players from their previous season's roster onto their team for the upcoming season. The number of players that can be kept, as well as the specific rules regarding keeping players, vary from league to league and are typically determined by the league commissioner or by a set of agreed-upon rules among league members. In a keeper league, the kept players usually come with a cost, such as forfeiting a specific draft pick in the upcoming draft or having to pay a predetermined fee. This adds a strategic element to the game, as managers must decide which players to keep based on their performance, potential, and value relative to the cost of keeping them. Keeper leagues often provide a deeper level of engagement and strategy compared to standard fantasy leagues because managers need to consider long-term player development and roster management beyond

FANTASY HOCKEY WAIVER WIRE PLAYERS TO PICKUP

Here are some players you should pickup in Fantasy Hockey, sorted by position. Center Colton Sissons Colton Sissons is one of the best 4th line centers in the league, but in fantasy hockey, he could be even more valuable than he actually is in real life because of what he provides in the peripheral categories. So far this season Sissions has 5 goals, 1 PPP, 1 SHP, 12 PIM, 20 SOG, 89 FW, 15 hits, and 9 blocks. This is a terrific stat line and although you can't count on Sissons scoring a ton, he will fill out the FW, Hits, and blocks usually. Sissons is owned in 6% of fantasy leagues, snag him up while you can. Nick Bjugstad Nick Bjugstad is having an excellent year so far with the Arizona Coyotes, in fact he has played so well that he earned himself a promotion to play on the 2nd line along with Mattias Maccelli and Lawson Crouse. Bjugstad also gets time on Arizona's 2nd PP unit and 2nd PK unit. Bjugstad may not be a name who stands out to casuals, but his fantasy stat line is
