New Panthers’ Scoreboard Ready To Go For 2013-2014 Season

With the 2012-2013 season already firmly in the rearview of the team, the Florida Panthers made their first big offseason move this past week and it had nothing to do with the roster. While the combined fates of several key players will remain in limbo until free agency begins on July 5th, the Panthers took their first step towards a new look next season when they announced that they would in fact be receiving the public funds needed to bring a new scoreboard to the BB&T Center.

With the motion to give the Panthers money from the Tourist Development Tax’s reserves passing by a vote of 6-2, the powers that be within the Sunrise Sports and Entertainment group turned their attention toward picking the best course of action for their now green-lit project. After a reportedly thorough and aggressive process, it was recently announced that Panasonic Eco Solutions North America had been selected to build and install the new center-hung scoreboard at the BB&T Center.

Panther Report: 2013 IIHF World Championship

IIHF

With the preliminary round winding down and the quarter finals set to begin this Thursday, the action is just starting to heat up at the 2013 IIHF World Championship. With each team already having competed in at least 6 games, Team Canada and Team Russia have risen to the top of their respective groups. Although no Panthers’ skater has grabbed any headlines  throughout the tournament, there have still been some exceptional performances worthy of noting.

Below, I have listed the current statistics for each Panther player represented at the World Championship as well as adding a brief comment on their play.

Brian Campbell (Canada)

GP: 7

G: 0

A:2

Note: As he was for the majority of the season in Florida, defenseman Brian Campbell has been a workhouse for Team Canada so far this tournament. Through 7 games played, Campbell is 2nd on the team in total TOI with 140:23 minutes played. Also, Campbell’s +7 rating is good enough for the best +/- rating on the entire Canadian roster.
