Douglas Cifu, vice chairman, partner and alternate governor of the Panthers, appears to have made the comments while arguing with a fan.

The host Florida Panthers defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs, 2-0, to even their second-round playoff series on Sunday night.

The NHL suspended a minority owner of the Florida Panthers on Tuesday for his recent "unacceptable and inappropriate" posts on social media.

The NHL playoffs have already provided a fair share of players reaching another level, but for some high-profile names, the spotlight's not flattering.

Going back to the start of the 2023 playoffs, no goalie has more wins, saves or shutouts than Bobrovsky — who backstopped Florida to the Stanley Cup Final in 2023, then to the Cup title last year and now has the Panthers in essentially a best-of-three series for a spot in this season's Eastern Conference finals.

When the shot came, Sergei Bobrovsky was ready. It didn't matter what had happened in Game 1 or Game 2, didn't matter what had happened in the first period or last season's Stanley Cup Playoffs. This was the moment.
