Spending the last four seasons of his NHL career with the Florida Panthers, Defenseman, Terry Carkner brought a lot of toughness to the new team.  Carkner did not have the same scoring touch that he had previously, but he played a role in the Panthers' surprising run to the Stanley Cup in 1996.
Jason Garrison was a Florida Panther for the first four seasons of his NHL career, the last of which is considered to be the most complete of his career.  Already possessing solid defensive skill, Garrison would add a bit of offensive flair with a 33 Point season in the 2011-12 campaign.
Somewhat of a veteran by the time he arrived in Florida, Ray Sheppard would have a 60 Point season in 1996-97.  Sheppard brought a veteran presence to Florida, which was showcased on their run to the Stanley Cup Finals where he scored 16 Points in 21 Games for the ’96 run.
Tomas Fleischmann had his best season in hockey, setting career highs in Goals (27), Assists (34), and Points (61) in his first of three seasons with the Florida Panthers.  Fleischmann would not be able to duplicate that scoring success again and would be shipped off two years later.
