When most people think of the Sunshine State, Florida Panthers tickets are not the first things to come to mind. While violent Canadians and stick-wielding Scandinavians probably wont' be the sexiest thing on the menu of things to see south of Georgia , don't write off the Panthers just yet. Based out of Sunrise , Florida , the Panthers skate at BankAtlantic Center , an arena that can seat more than 19,000 fans. Known as the coach who turned the Ottawa Senators into a winning team, hockey pundits expect Panthers Head Coach Jacques Martin will do the same in Sunrise .
