Only eight players, again all defensemen, have sported the #4 in Florida Panthers history. And while there are definitely a few candidates better suited for this type of article (one of whom I simply refuse to write about), I decided to go a bit off the beaten path again with my selection.
Per Gustafsson was selected by the Panthers in the 11th round (261st overall) in the 1994 NHL Entry Draft. At the time, Gustafsson was 24-years-old and already had six seasons of professional experience with HV71 of the Swedish Elite League under his belt.
