Panthers open new practice/training facility

[Ratsreign]

The Panthers long awaited new training facility in downtown Ft Lauderdale is finally ready for the team. Two sheets of ice, one for public use. There is also a restaurant and a concert hall all surrounded by soccer fields, tennis courts, and an outdoor hockey court.


Players impressed with their new digs.

in before the inevitable fanbase size joke

But yeah, that looks pretty awesome.; always nice to see more of these facilities popping up.

The hydration station was made to accommodate Matthew Tkachuk.

The 90s wrestling nerd in me saw the Fort Lauderdale War Memorial in the NHL article and my mind immediately went to ECW which had many TV tapings there

Anyway good to see, you are seeing more rinks being built in FL

Always good to see teams step up their practice rink facilities.

A blast from the past. I haven't been to the War Memorial in decades. Brings up memories of the 70s (that airplane in the front did it.). So that's a good thing, on top of the obvious hockey related news for me.

So its not a new building ?

Huberdeau be crying when he saw this.

Does it include a Olli Jokkinen shrine that pleases Olli and his girlfriend?

 

[ShootIt]

Nice to have owners that actually care about the team and willing to spend money not only on the roster but on facilities as well.

 

[Pestilence]

Outdoor hockey court in Florida? Never mind, I guess it is made of rubber or something similar.

Does it include a Olli Jokkinen shrine that pleases Olli and his girlfriend?

That's sick, man.

Nice. I recently went to a Panthers home game and they got a nice arena
