Florida Panthers: Recapping Jayce Hawryluk’s Rookie Season
In his first full season with the Florida Panthers, forward Jayce Hawryluk produced respectively, given his role on the bottom line.
Drafted back in 2014 in the second round (32nd overall), it took some time for Jayce Hawryluk to fully crack the Florida Panthers lineup full-time.
Although, after impressing the Cats with good showings down in the minors with Springfield, the Panthers decided that it would be worth a shot to give Jayce Hawryluk an opportunity to play on the fourth line.
On December 12, 2018, Hawryluk made his NHL debut against the Toronto Maple Leafs. He unfortunately didn’t score or put up any points, but the Panthers ended up winning in overtime, thanks to Aleksander Barkov.
