NHL Analyst Warns Maple Leafs Against Overpaying Panthers' Brad Marchand originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Brad Marchand’s postseason with the Florida Panthers has reignited interest in the veteran winger as he approaches free agency on July 1.

The Florida Panthers have a 3-2 series lead over the Edmonton Oilers in the Stanley Cup Final and can claim consecutive Cups with a win in Tuesday’s Game 6.

The Panthers are on the verge of winning 11 of 12 series since Paul Maurice took over. Not once was he close to the Jack Adams Award as coach of the year, but that’s a regular-season trophy, and he has done nothing but win in the playoffs.

An insider for The Athletic suggests that a Florida Panthers' playoff hero could be an option for the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Who should the Panthers have bang the drum for Game 6 against the Oilers, with a chance to repeat as Stanley Cup champions on the line?

With a chance to become the ninth different franchise to repeat as Stanley Cup champions, the Panthers know a strong start will be key again in Game 6 on Tuesday. Welcoming the Oilers back to Amerant Bank Arena – the site of Florida’s Cup-clinching win over Edmonton in Game 7 just a year ago – both players and the home crowd will be ready.
