Actually, my scientific expertise is in chemistry.

I do know that panthers aren't real and the logo is most definitely a puma.

Love the 8:00 start for absolutely no f***ing reason at all.

8:00 pm is a great puck drop time, why the complaining...
Your mouth so full of cookies it cant even close?

@Leonardo87 might ban me for saying this... but go Panthers!

I might be #1 on the ban list....

 

[Machinehead]

So what is the difference between a panther and a cougar, anyway?

Cougars are pumas. The naming difference just depends on the region they're from. Puma is a Latin word and cougar is an English translation. The cougar/puma is the animal the Florida Panthers are named after.

The panther isn't a real species. "Panther" is like a colloquial term for a big cat that isn't a lion or a tiger. Although it technically can include lions and tigers most people will just call them lions and tigers. Panthers include cougars, pumas, jaguars, and lynxeses.

Life doesn't revolve around the East coast. No matter how badly you think it does

That doesnt explain the subfamilys Pantherinae and Felinae though! Pantherinae is Panther!

Hold on, you might be right, let me check.

Nope. I was right.

Felinae is cat.

Pantherinae is big ass cat.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Felinae is cat.

Pantherinae is big ass cat.

So a Cougar isnt a big ass cat? Interesting. Id disagree having seen them in the backcountry.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Hold on, you might be right, let me check.

First of all, Toronto isnt marked. Second, still dont care.

No cougars are in the Pantherinae family. They're big ass cats.

No you aren't. There are more people outside of the Eastern time zone than in it

In that case, the Florida Panthers aren't even panthers.

But like I said, I'm not a biologist. Panther tends to be colloquially used more than scientificly used.

Exactly. They are Felinae! Just because Florida man named them that doesnt make it true!

Series should prioritize the home markets.

I'm not gonna ask the Oilers to start at 5:00 local time so it's more convenient for me.

Florida man also named death metal "death metal," which is cool, but also objectively kinda stupid.

LOL It's never been that way`. It's about the big picture and maximizing revenue and not about you

You understand that it would be difficult to change the rotation of the earth?

It is about me. My team is playing. We start games at 7. This is annoying.

But would death metal kill a Florida Panther if it was actually a Panther and not a Cougar?
