33. David Booth

A star at Michigan State, David Booth came to the Florida Panthers with fast skates and offense on his mind.  Booth is a three time 20 Goal scorer including a 31 Goal 2008/09 campaign, which was the best of his career.

4. Aaron Ekblad

Aaron Ekblad did as much as you could ask for in his rookie year, as the number one pick from the Barrie Colts scored 39 Points and won the Calder Trophy.  Ekblad never slowed down, showing exemplarart two-way hockey and a helathy Plus/Minus on a team that for the most part has not been usually on the winning side of the ledger.  

Entering his ninth season of professional hockey, Ekblad is slghtly over a .5 Point per Game player, a great number for a blueliner in the modern era.  Ekblad has now gonw to two All-Star Games and is certainly capable of a third, as he showed by his 2021-22 career-hugh of 57 Points with a sixth-place Norris vote.  He has it in him, and it does not hurt that the Panthers have been getting better, and even if he doesn't, he is still a phenomenal choice to crack the top two on this list.
A Florida Panther for 199 Games, Defenseman, Bryan McCabe followed up on hi s run with the Toronto Maple Leafs to become the prime blueliner in Miami.  McCabe would have over half a point per game as a Panther, an excellent record for anyone who spent this many games and more than worthy for this list.

32. Paul Laus

One of the few players who have tabulated over 500 Games as a Florida Panther, Defenseman, Paul Laus was known for his rugged and tenacious blueline play.  The Beamsville, Ontario native was also known for his toughness and was a large part of Florida’s 1996 Stanley Cup playoff run.  All of Paul Laus’ 530 Games in the NHL were played with Florida.
