FHN Podcast: Florida Panthers trade for Matthew Tkachuk
Florida Panthers fans, your new favorite podcast is live.
Episode 1 of the Florida Hockey Now Podcast is live and, if I may say so myself, it is a good one.
I am joined by Steve Macfarlane of Calgary Hockey Now to discuss the recent blockbuster deal that sent Jonathan Huberdeau, MacKenzie Weegar, Cole Schwindt and a lottery-protected 2025 first-round pick to the Calgary Flames for Matthew Tkachuk.
Topics discussed include:
— How both teams fare after the trade was made.
— Huberdeau’s development as a physical player and how coach Darryl Sutter will aid in that.

— What Tkachuk brings to the Panthers
We are currently working on getting the audio up on all of your favorite platforms — including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts and Amazon Podcasts — but the entire episode is also on our YouTube channel and can be accessed below.
