The Florida Panthers have demonstrated incredible offensive power in the 2025 Stanley Cup playoffs, with 17 out of 22 participating skaters scoring at least one goal in the postseason. After defeating the Toronto Maple Leafs 6-1, the Panthers lead their second-round series 3-2. This milestone marks the first instance since the 1993 Los Angeles Kings where a team achieved such a feat through the initial 10 playoff games. Coach Paul Maurice emphasized the importance of building players' confidence, which has contributed to their success and scoring distribution across the team.
Pick a Florida Panthers player - any Florida Panthers player - who has appeared in a game this Stanley Cup playoffs, and chances are he has probably scored a goal.
When you've got a guy that's not scoring, it's always the same line of 'I don't have my confidence. I don't have confidence,' said Panthers coach Paul Maurice.
On Wednesday, four players scored their first goal of this playoffs to turn a 1-0 first-period lead into a 5-0 edge in the third period.
The fact that you can spread it around, that they're all carrying into a game a reasonable belief that they could score - because they have in the last 10 games - they feel good about where they're at.
