Yes, the Florida Panthers are back in the Stanley Cup Finals for a second consecutive year. That was their plan, their mission from the start of the season. The Panthers as a whole, and Tkachuk individually, had no qualms making their grand plan known.
You cannot dwell on your past, but you can keep it in your mind. ... We experienced something last year that is going to help us this year, so we can't totally forget about it, but we've got to create some new memories.
Tkachuk was acquired in the blockbuster trade with the Calgary Flames ahead of the 2022-23 season to be one of the final big pieces the Panthers needed to get over the hump. He possessed the combination of physicality, grit and skill that would give the Panthers an edge to their game.
