Redemption Rewind: Florida Panthers scored some pretty goals during their Stanley Cup Final run
A fun way to enjoy Florida's incredible run to the Stanley Cup is going goal-by-goal
Nearly two months have now passed since the end of the Stanley Cup Final.
The Florida Panthers defeated the Edmonton Oilers in an epic seven-game series to claim the first championship in franchise history.
It was an incredible run for the Panthers, a two-month postseason journey that took them through Tampa Bay, Boston and New York before meeting Edmonton in the Final.
Florida came out of the gate quite strongly, needing only 11 games to earn the eight wins required to get past the Lightning and Bruins in the opening two rounds while averaging 3.54 goals per game in the process.
Things tightened up a bit when the Cats reached the Eastern Conference Final.
Waiting for Florida were the New York Rangers and their otherworldly goaltender Igor Shesterkin.
While the Panthers were able to defeat New York in six games, the final five were all decided by one goal, three of which went to overtime.
Florida only averaged 2.6 goals per game against the Rangers, and that number actually went down from there.
During their seven-game victory over the Edmonton Oilers, Florida averaged only 2.5 goals per game: 3.2 in their four wins and 1.6 in the three losses.
None of this is terribly surprising. The games tend to tighten up and goal become harder to come by the closer you get to the Stanley Cup.
Reliving the journey in different ways has been fun over the past few weeks.
Today, thanks to the NHL's video team, we’re looking at every single goal scored by Florida during their run to the Stanley Cup. All 73 of them.
