The Panthers are still trying to make their regular-season success carry over into the Stanley Cup playoffs.
"I've been privileged to play this game for a long time," Thornton said. "I don't take anything for granted." Longtime San Jose Sharks running mate Patrick Marleau announced his retirement earlier this month after playing 23 seasons in the NHL.
The best team in hockey’s regular season fell well short of its goal in the postseason. A team that scored more goals than any other club had in a quarter-century — Florida averaged 4.1 per game this season — managed only three in an entire series against the two-time defending Stanley Cup champion Lightning, who wound up knocking the Panthers out of the playoffs for the second consecutive season. They’re Stanley Cup champions for a reason,” Florida interim coach Andrew Brunette said.
