Gino Reda: “Where are the Panthers? They’re working on back-to-back cups, but they’re in the top 11 on our list so that all three guys can step on the door. Sam Bennett, Aaron Ekblad and Aaron Ekblad and Brad Marchand, of course, all of these guys are running.
Chris Johnston: “I said most likely to come back, I’m going with Sam Bennett. You know, there are definitely a lot of teams in these teams that he’s just doing in these playoffs. But, you know, he brings something invisible, you know, you know, you know what, you know what he’s his goal or his point of view. I’m sure he’ll be like Florida.

And, if you look at the Panthers, they lose their past free agents. I mean, they lost seven or eight guys almost immediately after winning the Stanley Cup last spring, but they were mostly players around the edge. They did a great job of maintaining core talents, and I believe Sam Bennett is suitable for the light of light, because Panthers would rather pardon the tongue.
So, I think the possibility that he will most likely come back is very likely. Anyway, this is definitely not a guarantee. Because the other thing is, Florida is comfortable. I think if that’s the right place to let the player walk?
You know, Aaron Ekblad has been a leopard throughout his career. His season has been tough since the No. 1 choice. In some ways, I think he has to bounce back here in these playoffs because he backed back after missing 20 games because of the material that he has gained this season.
But you know, they also bought Seth Jones, so in some ways, that’s the best. Of course you can keep the Ekblad in this mix and Jones, but I do think that if the contract asks and what they want to pay him, they have some substitutes on the right.
Finally, it was Brad Marcher. Admittedly, this is difficult to disable. He is the new player there. He is very suitable. Apparently, he wanted to go to Florida. That’s one of the reasons why the Brown Bear handed him over the deadline. But I think he has a great chance to deliver on this free agent. I think if he does put it on the open market on July 1, his demand will be very hot.

So I wouldn’t be surprised if he chose to go somewhere at the end of this run. But you know, most players don’t want to leave Florida, and I think the Panthers know that. So you know there’s some dynamics in the game there, but of course, this team may lose their talent, just like in previous years. Black Panther performed very well, just find a way to replace it.
