Florida Panthers
Special FHN Mailbag: Getting to Know ‘Our Guy, Colby’
It has been a great four months covering the Florida Panthers with Florida Hockey Now so far, but I haven’t formally introduced myself to you guys yet.
The first article I wrote here was some preseason awards predictions, and from there, I got into the flow of things covering the team alongside George.
On Sunday, my 100th article was published at FHN.
With the Panthers on their extended All-Star break until Wednesday night, I felt that now is a great opportunity for you guys to get to know me while we have a bit of a break in the action.
Now, allow me to formally introduce myself to everyone:
Hi, I’m Colby Guy, and I’m a 20-year-old FAU senior who is in my first season covering the team.
I grew up on Long Island, watched and played a lot of hockey, and fell in love with the game from there.

Submit your questions either in the comment section of this article or on Twitter, tagging me, @ColbyDGuy, and using #AskColby.
I appreciate the warm welcome all of you Panthers fans have given me since I arrived on the beat and I’m looking forward to a great rest of the season at FHN.
Now, let me hear from you!
What are your plans after graduating in the sports media world?
Have loved your articles and so glad you are on board. I even mistakenly gave George credit on some of the ones I liked most! I appreciate all the coverage and it appears that the occasional deep dive stories on some of the players and the behind the scenes ones tend to strike a chord with readers.
Some questions. How much access do you have to players and how much more attention are you seeing by local and other media now that the Panthers are doing well?
