It's so sad that every thread, every post you go to the weakest flex possible...."we won a cup...we won a cup". Congrats. What was your contribution? Just a few years ago and Florida was the joke of the league. Enjoy your window...it never lasts very long...and soon you'll be the one at the end of some other idiot's posts about 'not having won since dinosaurs walked around'. Really, so lame.

That’s the only flex you need as the current champions. Stay mad Oh no we were the joke of the league and now champions? Damn must suck to be your team, just losers

Did you even read the comment exchange? It was a Habs fan who did a very poor attempt at flaming that Panthers fan saying his team has been better the last 30 years when all he has is a finals loss compared to Florida who has a cup WIN and 2 more finals appearances.

Then you have Ole ole ole butting in trying to talk about a bunch of cups he didn’t even see as if they were relevant to the conversation

You’re not wrong, but the guy you posted to didn’t started all that nonsense. And we’ve heard shit for decades, so yeah, there’s some pent up frustration behind some of the championship posts.

I'm surprised FLA went this route. Assuming Tkachuk is back for the playoffs, their only real need was another defenseman. Their usual MO is to find cheap reclamation guys they can turn around, not high-ticket, big-risk deals. FLA's system does insulate defensemen and at a $7M cap hit in a rising cap, I think Jones has a chance to be worth it for the Panthers. This does basically signal they'll let Ekblad go though.

If the cap wasn't going up astronomically, Zito wouldn't have done this. He's now allowed more play.

Yes, which is why I said the rising cap is an important consideration.

Rantanen

Do you mean this Finnish guy who was drafted in 2015?

Or is there another Rantanen like there is another Elias Pettersson?

"a few years ago" the Panthers won the Presidents trophy. Beat out the Caps in the first round , then list to Bolts.
That's a career year for everyone in the entire Maple Leaf organization.
