Organization Overview:

The Florida Panthers are in their 33rd season in 2026-27 as one of the National Hockey League's premier franchises. As back-to-back Stanley Cup Champions in 2024 and 2025, the Panthers have won 11 of their past 12 postseason series and captured four Eastern Conference Championships. The organization is led by President of Hockey Operations & General Manager Bill Zito, entering his seventh season, and President of Business Operations Michael White, beginning his first full season.

Anchored by a championship culture on the ice, the Panthers are equally committed to building a world-class sports and entertainment platform off of it. The organization focuses on delivering an elite guest experience across all venues, deepening the connection between the team and the South Florida community and continuing to grow the sport for the next generation. The Panthers operate four facilities in Broward County: Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise which is home of Panthers home games, concerts and events, Panthers IceDen in Coral Springs, the state-of-the-art Baptist Health IcePlex in Fort Lauderdale and renovated War Memorial Auditorium which hosts concerts and events year-round.

The Panthers are owned by Vincent J. Viola, a graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point and a veteran of the U.S. Army. That foundation of selfless service shapes the organization's identity at every level. The Panthers' pillar program, "Heroes Among Us," honors a U.S. military veteran at every home game, and the Florida Panthers Foundation directs its efforts across four core pillars: veterans' affairs, children's health and education, raising awareness for the endangered Florida Panther and growing youth hockey throughout the region. The organization remains deeply committed to empowering and strengthening the diverse communities of South Florida and the tri-county area.

NHL to produce and distribute local games for four teams amid regional sports network collapse

The NHL will produce and distribute local games for the Carolina Hurricanes, Columbus Blue Jackets, Minnesota Wild, and St Louis Blues when the season begins in late September. The move follows the closure of Main Street Sports, which operated 15 regional channels under the FanDuel Sports Network brand. NHL Productions plans to enhance broadcast quality with additional cameras, improved replay capabilities, and graphics comparable to national network broadcasts. Local announcers will remain unchanged. Three other teams previously on FanDuel Sports Network have secured alternative arrangements. The Anaheim Ducks and Dallas Stars may join the NHL-produced broadcasts after Victory+ streaming service missed rights payments. Major League Baseball began similar centralised production in 2023 and now covers 15 teams. The NBA plans a centralised streaming hub for the 2027-28 season.

Honeywell becomes NHL's official building automation partner with AI-enabled 'Rinks of the Future

Honeywell International has entered a multi-year global partnership with the National Hockey League, becoming the league's official building automation and energy management partner. The deal aims to modernise arenas, practice facilities and community rinks with AI-enabled, integrated building systems. The partnership extends Honeywell's building automation footprint into sports venues and hockey communities across North America. However, analysts suggest the NHL deal serves primarily as a proof point for Honeywell's pivot towards higher-value, software-heavy automation and energy management, rather than altering the company's investment narrative. Honeywell's near-term focus remains on executing its planned breakup into three public companies, including an aerospace spin-off and divestitures of productivity solutions and warehouse divisions. The company projects $44.8 billion in revenue by 2029, requiring 5.9% annual growth.

NHL partners with Glice to showcase 150 m² synthetic ice rink at SportsInnovation 2026

The NHL invited Glice to showcase a 150 m² synthetic ice rink at the 2026 SportsInnovation conference in Düsseldorf, allowing visitors to test the company's StellarGlide technology firsthand. Glice's ice panels are manufactured in German plastic polymer mills that serve aerospace and robotics industries. Laboratory testing by the Fraunhofer Institute showed the surface achieved friction levels equivalent to real ice at lower skating speeds. Omar Mitchell, NHL vice president of innovation and growth strategy, said the activation demonstrates how material-science companies can shape hockey's future by lowering barriers to play through flexible, location-independent installations. The showcase highlighted how synthetic ice can support experiential activations and broaden access to skating experiences in new settings.
