On today's edition of the Locked On FLORIDA Panthers Podcast, Armando Velez(@Mandoman12) is here to discuss the news of Panthers Director of Hockey Operations and Salary Cap Management Braden Birch leaving the Cats organization to become an Assistant General Manager for the New Jersey Devils under Sunny Mehta, where he was also assigned as the GM of the AHL's Utica Comets. Sportsnets Elliote Friedman discussed last week that he wonders if there's a chance that former captain of the Panthers and Director of Player Personnel Bryan McCabe could be next to joining Sunny Mehta in the Devils front office as the pipeline from Florida to New Jersey has grown. We go back to our draft talk, and discuss who are the possible teams who could trade out of their picks, and who are the teams who could jump ahead of the Panthers? We also go back to our player grades and grade forward's Carter Verhaeghe and Sam Reinhart on their 2025-26 season. We discuss all of this and more on today's edition of the Locked On FLORIDA Panthers Podcast" Your Team, Every Day.
