Panthers hold training camp practice in Fort Lauderdale on Oct. 1. As if raising a Stanley Cup banner on Opening Night isn’t enough of a spectacle, the Florida Panthers and their fans are now dealing with the looming threat of a strong hurricane. Late Sunday night, the Panthers announced they had cancelled their planned Stanley Cup ring ceremony that was set for Monday night at Amerant Bank Arena. As of Sunday, Hurricane Milton is expected to make landfall on the west coast of Florida sometime Wednesday evening, with the forecast cone stretching from southwest Florida to the big bend. When the Panthers cancelled the ring ceremony, the team said plans for Opening Night were still on, and that they would be monitoring the storm. After traveling back to South Florida from Quebec City on Sunday, the Panthers will be on the ice for a full team practice on Monday at the Baptist Health IcePlex in Fort Lauderdale. That skate will likely give us a glimpse into Head Coach Paul Maurice’s plans for Florida’s Opening Night roster. Here’s THN Florida’s first guess at how the lines could look: Carter Verhaeghe – Sasha Barkov – Sam Reinhart Evan Rodrigues – Sam Bennett – Matthew Tkachuk Eetu Luostarinen – Anton Lundell – Mackie Samoskevich A.J. Greer – Jesper Boqvist – Patrick Giles Gus Forsling – Aaron Ekblad Niko Mikkola – Dmitry Kulikov Nate Schmidt – Adam Boqvist Extras: Jonah Gadjovich, MacKenzie Entwistle, Uvis Balinskis Image [https://thehockeynews.com/.image/c_fit,h_600,w_600/MjAwNjE3OTM2NjIzMjQ4NDky/img_6014.jpg] LATEST STORIES FROM THE HOCKEY NEWS - FLORIDA Florida Panthers cancel Stanley Cup ring ceremony due to Hurricane Milton, Opening Night still on [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/florida-panthers/latest-news/florida-panthers-cancel-stanley-cup-ring-ceremony-due-to-hurricane-milton-opening-night-still-on] Three takeaways: Samoskevich looks good on third line, Panthers escape preseason mostly healthy [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/florida-panthers/latest-news/three-takeaways-samoskevich-looks-good-on-third-line-panthers-escape-preseason-mostly-healthy] Panthers close out preseason with 4-2 victory over Kings in Quebec City [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/florida-panthers/game-day/panthers-close-out-preseason-with-4-2-victory-over-kings-in-quebec-city] Blue Jackets, Panthers to wear No. 13 Gaudreau jerseys for warmups during Columbus home opener [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/florida-panthers/latest-news/blue-jackets-panthers-to-wear-no-13-gaudreau-jerseys-for-warmups-during-columbus-home-opener] Panthers roster hopefuls make final push in preseason finale against Kings [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/florida-panthers/game-day/panthers-roster-hopefuls-make-final-push-in-preseason-finale-against-kings] Image [https://thehockeynews.com/.image/c_fit,h_600,w_600/MjAxNjQxMjA5NjI4NzMxMDIz/unnamed.jpg]
