How do the Panthers compare to the other playoff teams still alive in the Eastern Conference? Are the Panthers a legitimate Stanley Cup favourite? Will Steven Stamkos be back with Tampa Bay next season? TSN NHL analyst Jamie McLennan joins SC with Jay Onrait to discuss.

If the Panthers are the favorites and are guaranteed to win the Stanley Cup, then why play the games then? Stop wasting everyone's time and award them the Stanley Cup already. The Panthers have made the playoffs unwatchable and boring since everyone knows the ending. Hockey fans says baseball is boring but I'd argue the NHL playoffs is even more boring as the Panthers won the Stanley Cup before the playoffs even began. What's the point of watching the playoffs if the winner has already been predetermined by the media? Baseball better than hockey because there is more parity in baseball than there is in hockey.
Toronto will toss one of the 4 and sign Stamkos !!!! CALLING IT NOW !!!!!
Yes, when they can keep up the defense.
Yes. One of them or Boston likely the finals from the East.
Canucks win this year, sorry boys!
I think champions will be from the west coast
Mother
Fucking
Florida
Panthers
Final will be Edm v fla or NYR. Outcome will depend on skinner matching the Russian goalies.
Go Cats, Go! So proud of my team!
Final will be Colorado vs Florida
Panthers and Rangers are both strong candidates in the east.
Every team whos left are stanley cup favorites…i like NY and Edmonton
Wowza…one minute forty seconds on the Panthers and it’s back to Stamkos
Being labeled the favorite aint going to win anybody the Stanley cup.
I see it as the East is all defense and the West is all Offense and the NHL wants more goals. So the Western Conference will win no matter the East team. Plus the Eastern team will be beat down by the Cup.
Toronto will sign Stamkos $13 million for 7 years,
3 yrs at 7.5 average
Florida shut down the #1 penalty kill, top point man, and one of the best goalies in the playoffs. Great series for them
