What Florida Panthers Need to do to Remain a Contender

The Florida Panthers juggernaut of an offense last season, but not after losing a few key players in free agency and trading for Matthew Tkachuk, it seems like the Florida Panthers aren't as good a team heading into next season as they were in 2021-22. Here is what the Florida Panthers need to do to remain a contender.



Florida Panthers make a few trades:

Florida Panthers trade Sergei Bobrovsky to the LA Kings for Jonathan Quick, Gabriel Vilardi, 3rd round pick '23. Florida retains 50% of Bobrovsky's contract.

The Panthers are able to move Sergei Bobrovsky but they have to retain 50% of the contract; this is the best that Florida can hope for with a deal involving Bobrovsky.


Florida also trades Anthony Duclair and Brandon Montour to the Dallas Stars for Jani Hakanpaa,  '24 2nd.

The Panthers move some salary of their books, while at the same time adding some depth and physicality to their blueline.


Florida Panthers acquire Bryan Little from Arizona Coyotes for Aleksi Heponiemi.

The Panthers are able to add a little bit of wiggle room by acquiring Bryan Little, who still is on the books for 5.29 million for two more years.

Florida Panthers acquire Erik Brannstrom from Ottawa Senators for '23 2nd, '25 3rd.

Erik Brannstrom is a young puck-moving defenseman, who has a very high upside, but he has a lot of competition in Ottawa, so this trade makes sense for both teams.


Florida Panthers sign the Following players:

Erik Brannstrom-2yrs/2.75M per


All Non-Roster RFAs are Re-signed


This is how the lineup looks like next season


2022-23 Florida Panthers




C.Verhaeghe-A.Barkov-M.Tkachuk

R.Balcers-S.Bennett-S.Reinhart

G.Vilardi-A.Lundell-Co.White

N.Cousins-E.Luostarinen-P.Hornqvist


G.Forsling-A.Ekblad

E.Brannstrom-R.Gudas

M.Staal-J.Hakanpaa

S.Knight

J.Quick


The Florida Panthers now have a team that is a borderline playoff team in the Atlantic Division, but because they made moves to free up cap space, they could add some pieces at the deadline to make a strong push and have a monster second half.

Here are some tips to help you dominate your Fantasy Hockey Keeper Leagues. Number of Keepers and League Settings When deciding on keepers, it is very important to know how many keepers the league allows you to keep and the league scoring system, because there are players that work better in H2H CAT leagues as opposed to H2H leagues with standard scoring categories.  If you can only keep a few players, focus on those who provide the most value in your specific scoring format. Keep players who excel in categories that are heavily weighted in your league (e.g., power-play points, hits, blocks, faceoffs).

2024 Offseason Preview ft. New Jersey Devils

The New Jersey Devils the playoffs in the 2023-24 season after making it into the second round of the playoffs last season, and finished the season with a total of 81 points, a 38-39-5 record; With Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier in the midst of their primes, the New Jersey Devils really need to start to buckle down and put together the pieces for a contending team. The good news is that the New Jersey Devils have the benefit of having the 10th overall pick, which they could move to acquire a netminder, and they also have plenty of cap space to add other players as well. This coming offseason is a big one for the New Jersey Devils front office because after striking out on a netminder last offseason, the pressure to acquire a netminder this offseason is immense for GM Tom Fitzgerald, who might be on the hotseat if he can't find a way to fix the mess.

Vancouver Canucks won the Pacific Divison title and managed to defeat Nashville in 7 games even though they were playing without Thatcher Demko and moved onto to play the Edmonton Oilers in the second round, but they would ultimately fall short in Game 7. After the success of last season, Vancouver should look to improve the team in the offseason, but they only have so much cap space to fill many holes on the roster. Vancouver Canucks buyout Ilya Mikheyev ; Buyout will leave a 1.55 million cap hit until 2028.
