2022-23 NHL team preview: Florida Panthers
The Panthers were downright historic on offense last season. Huberdeau’s 85 assists set a single-season NHL record for left wingers. They had four 30-goal scorers, six 20-goal scorers and 13 players in double figures. In 5-on-5 play, no team generated more shots, shot attempts, scoring chances or high-danger chances. The Panthers were first inBut do they enter 2022-23 with the same fearsome group of scorers? No way. Rental second-liner Giroux left as a UFA.
In Barkov and his emerging clone Lundell, the Panthers have two responsible two-way centers. Barkov has typically matched up against other teams’ top forwards but Lundell should start to earn more responsibility, too, after a superb rookie season as a play-driving third-liner. Florida’s D-corps looks far shakier this season, however. Ekblad remains the horse who will play monster minutes in all situations, but he suffered freak leg injuries in back-to-back seasons, testing the Panthers’ depth.
Maurice also has the most losses in NHL history at 681, however, and has missed the playoffs more often than he’s made it in his career. Sometimes his personality casts a larger shadow than his actual coaching legacy. His experience will be valuable to a team looking to get over the hump, but that experience isn’t all successful. He’s reached one Stanley Cup Final and escaped the second round of the playoffs just three times in 24 seasons.
