Season Rewind - Jussi Jokinen
SUNRISE, Fla.
– After spending the majority of his career maneuvering up and down depth charts, veteran forward Jussi Jokinen was happy to finally carve out a new and far more consistent home on the ice with the Florida Panthers this past season.
Although he initially began the season bouncing between lines as usual, Jokinen eventually settled in with Vincent Trocheck and Reilly Smith on Florida’s high-scoring second line. The trio would go on to combine for a staggering 34 goals and 83 points in the 31 games before Trocheck was knocked out of the lineup with a lower-body injury on March 29.
