The 2025-26 NHL season is going to be here before we know it.
We’re less than a month away from rookies and veterans being summoned to their respective teams’ training facilities to officially kick off training camp.
In South Florida, the excitement for the local ice hockey team has never been higher.
The Florida Panthers are coming off back-to-back Stanley Cup championships and will be looking to become the first time to complete a three-peat since the New York Islanders won four straight Cups in the early 1980s.
When they do it, the Panthers will be playing in front of a packed house in Sunrise.
It’s no surprise that the South Florida team that has made three consecutive appearances in the finals has also sold out their season tickets.
The Cats are popular and attending games in Sunrise is a trendy thing to do these days.
In addition to checking out one of the best teams the NHL has seen in recent memory, fans also get additional fun elements of their visit to Amerant Bank Arena that are provided by the team.
One example are the Panthers’ special themed nights.
This season, Florida is hosting 16 theme nights, which will account for just under 40% of the team’s 41 regular season home games.
Here is the full list of all 16 Panthers theme nights in 2025-26:
