Inside look at Florida Panthers
Eye return to Final with healthy Tkachuk, top 10 scorers back from last season
The Florida Panthers are hoping to prove their run to the Stanley Cup Final last season was no fluke.
The Panthers were not able to clear the final hurdle, losing to the Vegas Golden Knights in five games in the Final.
"I'm sure in a couple days, a couple weeks, even months, you're going to realize what actually happened and how far we got and how close we were to the ultimate goal that we have in this organization," captain Aleksander Barkov said in June. "... We can build on this. ... We're only going to get better. We'll learn from this and get better."
The good news is their top 10 scorers from last season will return, including forward Matthew Tkachuk, who had 109 points (40 goals, 69 assists) in 79 regular-season games and was a finalist for the Hart Trophy as NHL most valuable player. Tkachuk had 24 points, including 11 goals and four game-winning goals, in 20 playoff games but missed Game 5 of the Final because of a fractured sternum sustained during Game 3.
"It feels like our season just ended, but I feel like the core guys are still there and [hopefully] we can [play like] the last few months from the start of the season," Tkachuk said last week. "But we also have that sour taste and how it ended and how we got so close and how it's so hard to get there on the road. I can guarantee you guys are way more hungry after getting so close and not getting it done this year. So we're going to be definitely ready."
Tkachuk, who said he is recovering well, is looking forward to the upcoming season.
"All the things are moving in the right direction here for camp, so [I'm] excited for when camp starts," he said. "... Pretty close to feeling how I want to feel, so that's really exciting."

Oh I KNOW Max Verstappen saw Charles Leclerc's Ferrari in front of him and his unhinged brain went "I'M GONNA GET YOU" and then proceeded to give us the first overtake of the season because HE MISSED RACING CHARLES and that's really the only thing he knows how to do at this point (I'm delulu)
