This season hasn’t been what anyone in the organization or even in the league expected.
The Florida Panthers’ 2019 resume has been full of ups and downs ranging from extremely inconsistent 5-v-5 play, poor defensive play, overall misguided scheme, and goaltending to unexpectedly having one of the highest rated power plays in the league.
On first blush, one would suggest that this has been a year of the unexpected. I would suggest that nothing that has happened this year has been all that surprising.
While the Panthers fanbase may not be the biggest in the world by any means, there are plenty of dedicated fans who have followed this team for many, many years.
