Florida Panthers President and Chief Operating Officer Michael Yormark posted on Twitter today that the team will not be selling plastic rats anymore at the team store at BankAtlantic Center—and blamed it on Devils’ fans that attended Game 5.

“Panthers will not sell rats at Pantherland,” Yourmark tweeted. “This is a result of visiting fans throwing rats on the ice during the game.”

Some fans threw the rats, which were being sold for $5 apiece, on the ice after each goal during the Panthers’ 3-0 Game 5 win over the Devils at BankAtlantic Center. They also threw rats on the ice after Panther goals in Games 1 and 2

Something tells me this has more to do with the rat being thrown on the ice during a faceoff .Normally I wouldn't care but they were getting out of hand.Also glad to see other fans reading fire and ice its a great source TG is one of the best

Aside from inconsistent penalty calls and bad coaching from DeBoer I have said we'be been outplayed.I also gave Fla credit before the series.I also don't buy that it was devil fans throwing rats we throw benches

I wouldn't even call it bad coaching. The team has played like shit EVERY game, that's on the players not the coach. We're lucky to have the wins we do have. Its painful to read the Devils board with people making excuses for Kovy and shit. I don't know why everyone thought this would be a great matchup for us, did they just forget the regular season?

I wonder if they scooped the rats up and took them back out to the gift shops. If so that had to be pretty lucrative.

Dash, you didn't include the entire quote...


“Panthers will not sell rats at Pantherland,” Yourmark tweeted. “This is a result of Devils' fans throwing rats on the ice during the game... But it's okay, we're flush with cash and profits, so it's not like we needed the revenue anyway. Besides, this is not nearly as bad as when the Devils' ruined hockey with that damn trap system. Thanks a lot, Devils. Wanna kick my dog while you're here?"

The reason I say bad coaching is playing an ahl defensman Harrold over Larsson all series,mixing the lines and inserting our 4th liners in our top 3 to start game 5 and giving the team days off after bad losses .A lot has factored in to us being in the position we t
Are in DeBoer being one.Also didn't like the way he vacated the physical game that was our most effective asset in the best game we played

that's a hell of a recurring revenue business model.
pretty bullshit move blaming visiting fans.

Devils fans don't even go to home games, I doubt the trouble makers would go to Florida
