  1. A shout out to Dale Tallon who put together much of what Bill Zito inherited and took to another level. Both men are important to why Panthers are where they are. Good luck to the Cats. Panthers in 5.

  2. Pat Riley still gets the title of best executive in this town because of his track record over decades. But what Bill Zito has done in four years is beyond incredible. The term “Midas Touch” isn’t even enough praise for him. There isn’t a better 4 year run of GM work in the history of this town. Even the Big 3 Heat.

  3. As an Edmontonian, and Oiler fan, we are both very equal, with speed, talent, skill. Some other pros and cons for either side. This battle will be awesome, and I'm glad its you guys we are in this with. With that said, you have never played in a building like ours during playoffs. Your players will experience something they have always dreamed of. Its a religion up here. Spine tingling. Let the best team win, this will be great!

  4. Great GM. The Tkachuk trade, Forsling acquisition, and Bennett trades were all absolute coups that turned a pushover team into a potential cup winner. Really impressive stuff.

  5. Bill Zito deserves a statue if he brings a cup to Sunrise. He’s been a godsend for us diehard Panthers fans

  6. Why does Bill Zito look so… thin? Did he lose a lot of weight? I hope it's just diet and exercise and nothing negative

  7. as a canadian-born tampa fan, i really appreciate this video about bill zito.

    he's done a great job putting FLA where they are over the past 4 years.

    too much deluional canadian people up here dick-riding EDM and not giving the proper respect FLA deserves.

    the canadian media here is more oilers biased, but they have done a decent job talking about and covering FLA.

    am picking florida in 6 games to win the cup.

    keep up the excellent hockey coverage, pat mcafee show!

    cheers from southern ontario, canada 🍁

  8. don't look for players that love to win. look for players that hate to lose. Shoresy

  9. I want zeto and pat riley to just do a interview together just so Boston spots fans seethe like they never have before
