Hi everybody, just curious since I didn't follow the Panthers when the Lightning won the cup in 2004. Do you think a Tampa Bay win in the cup finals increases an interest in hockey in South Florida? Obviously the fan bases are different, but with the mainstream media coverage the Lightning are bound to get I would have to imagine peoples interest will be peaked.
To me right now would be an amazing time to start a real rivalry between the 2 teams. With Tampa making a deep playoff run and possible cup win. I think if the Panthers can make a legit playoff run next season, it could be the start of something really exciting between the 2 teams. Anyways, interested to hear your opinions.
