Florida Panthers History
The Florida Panthers began play in the NHL in the 1993-1994 season. The team won the Presidents Trophy for the 2021–2022 season, earning the most points during the regular season. The Panthers then reached the Stanley Cup Final in the 2023-2023 season, though they lost to the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 4.
However, victory was theirs next season, when the Panthers won their first Stanley Cup in the franchise’s history. The 2024 Stanley Cup Final was a thrilling seven-game series, which saw Florida win 2-1 at their home venue of Amerant Bank Arena. In 2025, the Panthers clinched their second consecutive Stanley Cup title, locking in back-to-back NHL championships.

The best overall hockey game I have been to period!
I spent a great time with my family watching the ice hockey game! It was so easy to buy, to pick the tickets up! to go in and go out! Thanks for everything!
Glad to see the play intensity did not fade but lasted the whole game. The return of the organ was great and added a lot rather than just canned sound effects. Overall I think the Cats will do well this year and fans should support the team.
Great Game for us People from Switzerland. Lets go Panthers !!
Went to the opening night Panthers vs Lightning game and had a blast. A great inexpensive evening.
It was amazing from the event at the entrance till the last minute of the game. We enjoy the free stuff to cheer our team and the organization from entertainment for the children through the entire event. About the food court It needs better improvement on the cashiers system, other than that all was excellent!!!
No secret hockey isn't as popular as most of the other major sports but that is largely due to the fact that the sport does not translate well to TV. In person, it is faster, easier to follow and FULL of action. if you don't know what I mean just go to a game and you will see for yourself. Go Panthers.
It was really amazing for me! I´m from Germany and it was my first NHL game. Its so different to the german Hockygames. It was great! I´m comin again! SURE! :-) Toby
Awesome game and the Panthers held their own against the Dallas Stars. 2 Great fights and really enjoyed the game with about 10 of my friends!!!
Panthers played like it was every man for himself - I hope this improves! Arena staff was great as usual.
A very exciting preseason game. The bank atlantic is a great venue
The game was good. But i thought that Panters should win after they took leading 3-1. Good play from russian guys Kulikov and Dadonov. Coach should give them more play time.
we had incredible seats! The newly remodeled Bank Atlantic Center was great - a LOT more options as far as snacks/beverages! The atmosphere was a blast - the only thing that would've made it better: if the Panthers had won.... oh well!
It was a real disappointment to see the Panthers lose even in a preseason game. I hope their final line is better than what they demonstrated....
Hockey is Back! After waiting 5 long months of summer, we were so excited to be back at the BAC to root on our Panthers!
It was fun to attend a pre-season game. The B Team was doing pretty well until the last period. It is unusual to have a double header in hockey. The promotion was great-free tickets. The arena was empty for the first game, about 100 people, but it was fun to have the entire arena for yourself and a few other people. This promotion should be offered again in the future.
WOOO! GO PANTHERS!!!!! Its only preseason but it was great.
Been waiting for hockey to begin and The Panthers are going to kick ass this season!
The game was great and the price was even better!!!! Go Panthers!!!
This was the first game that I was able to attend since I move here to South Florida and I was delighted to be able to see my Penguins play against the Panthers. I had a really good time. Lets face it, the Panthers have not been a good team for quite some time. However, they put a good product out there for the price of admission. For the most part, the entertainment was of good quality though the dancers were a bit much. I give a lot of well deserved kudos to the organization for their effort. Hopefully the aggressive rebuilding that the Panthers are undergoing will pay off this season and give their fans a reason to be excited and fill the seats. Of course, I still want my Pens to win when they play but I will certainly be attending games against other teams this coming season and will give the Cats my support.
