Looking back at each Panthers postgame victory puck moment from latest Stanley Cup run

Looking back at each Panthers postgame victory puck moment from latest Stanley Cup run

Yahoo5 days ago
Over the past several seasons, the Florida Panthers have evolved into one of the NHL's premiere franchises.
Florida has advanced to each of the past three Stanley Cup Finals, winning back-to-back championships in the process.
They're also built to last, with the team's entire core locked into long-term, team-friendly contracts that will allow Florida to remain one of the top teams in the NHL for years to come.
The success of the Panthers has provided some incredibly fun and memorable moments for their fans, and the team has done an excellent job of creating and curating the events into consumable content that can be rewatched and revisited time and time again.
One thing that the Panthers have done during each of their three runs to the Final that fans have really seemed to enjoy engaging with on social media has been their postgame puck tradition.
It started back in 2023, which was the year that Florida squeaked into the playoffs as the eighth seed.
Facing a first-round matchup against the historically good Boston Bruins, who had set a new NHL record for wins and points in the regular season (with 65 wins and 135 points), the Panthers were a massive underdog.
After falling behind three games to one in the series, Matthew Tkachuk scored the overtime winner in Game 5 in Boston, sparking Florida's incredible, improbable run to the Stanley Cup Final.
In the Panthers' postgame locker room, the game puck went Tkachuk, and he famously said to his teammates, 'Remember this room, we'll be back here for (Game) 7.'
Those videos have become something of a thing in the two years since, though it surely helps that Florida has done so much winning once the playoffs arrive.
Considering the team's postseason prospects for the coming years, we may just be scratching the surface on these fun videos.
As we did last season here at THN Florida, we've compiled a list of every postgame puck moment, starting with the first game of the postseason in Tampa Bay.

Falcons lose starting WR Darnell Mooney for several weeks with shoulder injury and sign D.J. Chark

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP) — Darnell Mooney's status for the start of the season is uncertain as the Atlanta Falcons' second-leading receiver in 2024 is expected to miss several weeks of training camp with a shoulder injury. Mooney suffered the injury in Thursday's first practice of training camp. The Falcons bolstered their depth chart at wide receiver by signing veteran D.J. Chark Jr., who joined the team for Saturday's practice. Chark worked out for the Falcons on Friday. 'That workout was already set up,' Falcons assistant general manager Kyle Smith said Saturday, referring to the visit from Chark being scheduled before Mooney's injury. Smith said Mooney's injury is 'part of the deal' and the front office is 'always ready to find solutions and add to the roster whenever we can.' Smith provided no details on the severity of Mooney's injury. Chark, 29, began the 2024 season on injured reserve with a hip injury and was limited to four catches for 31 yards with one touchdown in seven games with the Los Angeles Chargers. Chark, a second-round draft pick by Jacksonville in 2018, set career highs with 73 catches for 1,008 yards and eight touchdowns for the Jaguars in 2019. Following four seasons with Jacksonville, Chark played for Detroit in 2022 and Carolina in 2023. Mooney had 64 catches for 992 yards and five touchdowns in 2024. Drake London led the team with 100 receptions for 1,271 yards and nine touchdowns. London, Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud III opened training camp as Atlanta's top wide receivers. KhaDarel Hodge returns as a top backup after starting two games last season. The injury will force Mooney to miss valuable practice time with second-year quarterback Michael Penix Jr., who is entering his first full season as the starter following a three-game audition to close the 2024 season. ___ AP NFL:

Dolphins sign ex-Patriots star to fill big void

The Miami Dolphins are turning over every stone to try to improve their cornerback depth. They were dealt a big blow this week when Artie Burns tore his ACL, and multiple signings have followed. The latest came Saturday, as the Dolphins announced they had signed free agent Jack Jones. Jones was a fourth-round pick by the Patriots in 2022 who stayed with New England until midway through 2023, when he missed curfew before a game and was released. He joined the Raiders, for whom he played the rest of 2023 and all of 2024. In 2024, Jones set career highs in tackles (69), passes defensed (16) and interceptions (3). MORE: Bills' James Cook contract saga doesn't lessen his importance to Super Bowl aspirations Jones is 27 years old and has seven interceptions through his first three NFL seasons since leaving Arizona State. The Raiders spent the first month of the offseason trying to trade Jones but released him in April after not finding any takers. Now, the Dolphins were desperate and are giving Jones a chance.

Playing alongside his close friend, Leo Messi The world champion has chosen to complete the next phase of his professional career alongside his close friend in the Argentine national team, the legendary Leo Messi, who is performing magically in Miami alongside Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba. Today, they have a new member of the inner circle of friends of the legend who wears the number ten shirt.
