Founded in 1993, the Florida Panthers entered the league along with the California Mighty Ducks in order to maintain the league’s balance. Their home arena is the BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise, Florida, and they are part of the Southeast Division of the Eastern Conference. They have entered the Conference Championships one time in 1995-96 and are expected to be the only team to miss ten consecutive playoffs following the 2010-11 season. Likely spending too much time enjoying the rays the Sunshine State has to offer. They were unique in that their inaugural season was one of the best of all expansion teams, and even the best of any NHL team to date. They are also the only team in the NHL to have a .500 win ratio against the team with the most Stanley Cups, the Montreal Canadiens. After an excellent initial three seasons, the team began to fall apart and consistently poor trades, injuries, and mismanagement has hampered any form of growth and is causing serious problems on the ice. As of the 2009-10, they have their first season in five years with a negative win ratio. They had thirty-two wins, thirty-seven losses, and thirteen overtime losses with seventy-seven season points.!
