#AskFHN Mailbag
Black Friday Edition of the FHN Florida Panthers Mailbag Now Open
We are over a quarter of the way through another Florida Panthers season. Time flies, eh? So, with Thanksgiving and Black Friday coming up, figured it was time for another FHN Mailbag.
That’s right: All of your most pressing questions about the Panthers, the NHL, the college football playoffs, best Thanksgiving sides, whatever.
Ask away.
With the Panthers playing on Wednesday and Friday this holiday week, let’s get after it, eh?
Here is the deal: You have until 9 p.m. on Thursday night to submit your questions regarding any subject you would like.
Throw it out there, I’ll probably answer it.
So, how do you get the questions in?
It is pretty easy.
To leave a question, simply leave it here in the comment section.
You can also head over to our FHN Facebook page if you saw this story there and leave it there — or use the #AskGR hashtag on Twitter.
You ask ‘em, I will answer.
Again, the Mailbag will be published here on Friday morning.
Have a great Thanksgiving!

Dr. GR,
Do people that configure their toilet paper to roll under instead of over have souls like the rest of us?
George, this Thanksgiving I am thankful for you and for this site. Not living in SoFla has me feeling a lot of FOMO these past three seasons, but your writing and insights keep me close to the action and in the know. Muchas gracias, compadre.
My question is this: when it comes to former Panthers which ones are still plugged in to the team? By that I mean are seen going to games as fans, hanging around the practice rink, got their kiddos on the Jr. Panthers, etc. Surely a bunch of them are still full or 3/4 time residents.
Think Devine will stay up for the rest of the year? Anybody else in Charlotte ready to take the next step?
Any chance Barkov comes back for any part of the regular season or at least some part of the playoffs assuming the Panthers get in.
With both our goalies set to be UFAs at the end of this year, any guesses on what the goalie room looks like for next year and what their cap hits could look like? I know its early in this year but I’ve thought Tarasov has looked good, does management have plans for him to be goalie of the future now that Knight is gone, or are there other options they are exploring as well?
Hi George – Is there any chance that we’ll see those Game Day Parlays again? Also, provided that the injured are all back in mid- March, who’ll be the odd men out of the current squad? One more – I believe the Cats make the playoffs, but do you think the Leafs will? Thanks…
Does the league still have the faceoff rule on time? Seems they are taking longer for the linesman to drop the puck.
Hi George,
Do you think that the team is finally finding their groove and meshing better? I feel like it could be uphill from here, like Stella is getting her groove back. I know it’s wishful thinking. Just wondering what your thoughts are on this subject?
Thanks,
Lisa
The team has looked more cohesive recently (other than maybe in net). With the restrictions on playoff cap and the anticipation of our injured players eventually coming back, do you think the Cats will be active at the deadline or roll with what they have?
