Florida Panthers: Candidates to Break Out This Season

The Florida Panthers have always been able to find players shockingly develop into punching well above their weight in points tallies. They have mostly been forwards, but there are lots of young players in the Panthers roster all around their core.

Four seasons ago, Reilly Smith, someone who struggled to score goals in his second season in Boston, emerged into a 25-goal scorer in Florida. Three seasons ago, Jonathan Marchessault, who failed to make a name for himself in Tampa Bay, surprised all of the hockey world by bagging 30 goals and 21 assists in 75 games in his one and only season with the Cats.
