Mike Hoffman, acquired just last year from San Jose, has been an absolute bargain for the Florida Panthers. Putting offseason drama behind him, Hoffman had a career season in Florida, posting career highs in goals (36), points (70), power-play goals (18), and power-play points (35).
Always capable of grabbing a point in a clutch moment, Hoffman also put up his second-best game-winning goal tally with six and tied his overtime game-winning goal mark with three.
Despite mid-season trade rumors, the Panthers kept Mike Hoffman around, and to good effect. He shook off a poor month of January with 27 points in 31 games across the months of February and March.
