About

Lead Blogger:  Frank Rekas

Born and raised in Chicago, I grew up a Blackhawks fan.  Still am and always will be.  However since moving to South Florida in 1993 I have adopted the Florida Panthers.  I am a passionate fan of hockey and love to talk about it with anyone who will listen/put up with me.  I have many great memories of my time in Chicago and still have a brick from the old Chicago Stadium which was given to all season ticketholders after it was taken down.

I hope that someday soon the Bank Atlantic Center here in Florida will “rock” like Chicago Stadium did.  I like my teams to play aggressive, fast, yet with toughness.  I am a bit old school in that regard, but love to see players show their skills too. 

I’m here to spread my insight, opinions, and have fun talking with everyone about our Panthers.  We can talk about whatever you like though.  Other sports, music, which I will sprinkle in once a week to add a little flavor, but we will not be talking about the Pittsburgh Penguins!  At least not positively!  The 1992 Final still hurts!

Please comment often, and if you’d like to keep it private you can email me at therattrick@gmail.com.
