Ethan Skolnick says the Florida Panthers have become a punch-line.
This is what happens when an organization misses the postseason for two full presidential terms, when it has endured enough in-house drama to capture a daytime Emmy, when its team-building strategy has had all the consistency and coherence of the average Moammar Gadhafi speech. That organization becomes a punch line. In recent years, the U.S. government politely asked that the BankAtlantic Center remove the American flag for fear that the Panthers would start trading off its stars after they were done dealing their own. (You never know when some other country would offer a broken sickle and a broken-down left wing.)
Read the rest of the insightful and entertaining article. Do you think Mr. Skolnick has let his guard down? I’d say he has. I don’t think this team has the talent they had, even last year. Then again, maybe they have the character.

And it may well be another administration gone before the Panthers hit the playoffs. Despite what everyone is saying, this year is not looking any better than previous years. At least Jay Blowmeester is gone.
They’re 1-1, Eric! Give it some time!
I’m back on board as a Panther fan — they are my club in the East (now that Jacques is gone).
