Florida Panthers announce Training Camp Fan Fest, release camp roster

The Florida Panthers will be back on the ice together for the first time this week since winning the Stanley Cup.

On Thursday, the Panthers will open their 2024 Training Camp.

It will be the first training camp held at the new Baptist Health IcePlex in Fort Lauderdale, and it will be Florida's first training camp as the defending Stanley Cup Champions.

The first practice will be Thursday morning.

On Tuesday, the Panthers released their 54-man training camp roster, which includes 31 forwards, 16 defenseman and seven goaltenders.

Included are three players that Florida signed to on Professional Tryouts (PTOs) for camp.

They are forwards Matt Luff, John Leonard and Aidan McDonough.

Luff and Leonard have been pros for several years with some NHL experience under their belts while McDonough was signed out of college in 2023 and played his first professional season last year for the AHL's Abbotsford Canucks.

Fans looking to attend should visit www.FTLWarMemorial.com to register for the event.

Additionally, there will be select training camp practices that will be open to the public and free to attend.

The Panthers haven't set any of those dates yet, but when they do, they will be posted on the War Memorial website.
