Matthew Tkachuk featured on cover of NHL 26, first Panthers player selected since John Vanbiesbrouck
It's been a long time since a Florida Panthers player graced the cover of a major NHL video game. Much like the franchise's extended playoff drought, decades between playoff series wins and 30 years without a championship, it was another streak that was due to end. On Monday, EA Sports and the NHL announced that Panthers star Matthew Tkachuk would be the cover athlete for NHL 26. It's a very logical selection. Tkachuk has helped Florida win back-to-back Stanley Cups and the Panthers are looking like the league's next dynasty. His ability to play such a unique style, equally combining elite hockey skills with relentless effort and physicality while also holding a mental edge over his opponents, has made Tkachuk one of the most polarizing players in the game. It's the first time a Panthers player has been selected for the cover of an EA Sports NHL release since John Vanbiesbrouck on NHL 97. A full preview for the game is set to come out on Wednesday, and the game itself is reportedly set for a Sept. 13 release.
