If you’ve been watching this channel for a while you know I’m a huge Toronto Blue Jay Chicago Cubs and just baseball fan in general it’s my second favorite sport I’m almost as passionate about as I am hockey I decided to make a baseball channel so that especially in the summer
When things are really dead as far as hockey news and there’s nothing going on at all instead of making way too many trade rumor videos like I did last off season I’m instead going to use that channel to focus on the baseball season especially during the summer and the
Videos on Johnny hockey in the summer it be purely rankings of Arenas jerseys things like that covering the draft big trades and official news mostly big signings we get in free agency if you like baseball you’re a big blue jays fan or you just like the sport in general
Please go over there and subscribe let me know what teams or players you’d like me to cover and I will absolutely do so thank you you’re awesome about a month ago I made a video talking about how the Florida Panthers were really starting to look like one of if not the most serious
Stanley Cup contender in the whole league the one thing they’d been missing was that kachuck just didn’t look quite the same as last year I think because his broken sternum in the Stanley Cup Final more specifically his recovery from it threw off his entire offseason and and made it more challenging for him
To step back in day one and be the Matthew kachu that he was all of last year but as soon as the calendar turned to 2024 he really started to look like the old Matthew kachuck he’d found his Superstar form again and that should worry the entire rest of the NHL cuz
That makes the Panthers even scarier since then the Florida Panthers have won 10 of their last 11 games and no coincidence Matthew kachuck has the most points in the entire league since January 1st think about that for a second mcdavid’s been going nuts with six assist games COV and McKinnon have
Been going tit fortat lighting up the league and still kachako now looks like he’s put the sternum injury behind him and everything that came with it he’s leading the category with a ridiculous 15 goals 37 points in only 19 games since the calendar turned to 2024 and the Panthers were already good even
While kachuk was struggling having prime kachu just makes them straight up terrifying we saw a real good example of that when they absolutely slapped around the Tampa Bay Lightning a few nights ago for much of their existence the Florida Panthers have been the Tampa Bay Lightning’s envious little brother so to
Be honest it’s cool to see them kind of turn the tables around here and be the dominant Force I know the lightning will always have the argument that they have the Stanley Cups and that’s absolutely true it’s a good argument but at least right now and last season I don’t think
There’s any question who the better team is we really need another battle Florida playoff series to truly get into this hockey Gods please and sure last night you could say well Florida went up two nothing and then they blew that lead to Ottawa let it slip away they were lucky
They went and Salvage the W in overtime every team has games like that the truly good teams they have those two they’re able to battle through when they don’t have their aame and still pull out the win and that’s exactly what Florida did that was some kind of shot by lundell
Sharp angle right over the shoulder some guys like Jack Hughes they do the bank shot off the goalie and in usually the mask I know londell had a better angle here but still I just love that he went straight roof job with that win the Panthers are now second overall in
League standings Boston’s been a bit of a roller coaster lately so Florida’s been able to overtake that first spot in the Atlantic division it’s still way too early to talk about playoff matchup especially because the Rangers are only one point back of them but as of right
Now it looks like there’s a decent chance they’re going to play against either Tampa or Detroit and like I said I want the battle of Florida anybody in Tampa or Detroit want to start a we want Florida chant and look with this team the headlines are going to go to kachak
They’re going to go to Sam Reinhardt barov Sergey Bovi but one guy I want to highlight who’s having a great season and it’s really helped this team a lot Anthony stolar yeah the backup goenda percentage that is just sparkling in his last four starts he hasn’t had a
Save percentage under 910 and oh yeah his last one against Buffalo was a 45 save shut out it’s been fantastic for the Panthers that Serge bosski has been able to carry forward his playoff performance from last year and obviously he’s the guy without him it’s going to
Be really difficult for the Panthers to do anything in the playoffs but Stars has been found money for this team I mean Bill Zito took a flyer on and the yet it not so great year in Anaheim last year he’s come in and made Bill Zito
Look like a genius he’s been one of the best if not the best backup golender in the entire league A team’s backup goalie rarely gets any praise so just wanted to throw a couple of flowers his way cuz he’s deserved it I want to talk more Panthers as the year goes on especially
Going into the playoffs cuz they’re one of the most fun teams to watch in the whole NHL and one thing I want to do spef spefically is I want to break down exactly what kachuck does so well to score his goals if that’s something you
Guys want to see make sure you let me know by liking the video and commenting if you like baseball subscribe to just over the fence I’ll see in the next one you’re awesome
