In a stunning reveal sure to excite hockey fans everywhere, Netflix has just announced a powerful new documentary chronicling the Florida Panthers’ dramatic rise in the NHL — and it’s already being hailed as one of the most emotional sports stories ever told on screen.
Titled “Uncaged: The Florida Panthers’ Fight for Glory,” the series takes viewers on a wild ride from the franchise’s humble beginnings under billionaire Wayne Huizenga, through the unforgettable 1996 Stanley Cup Finals run, and all the way to the team’s recent resurgence as a powerhouse in the league.
📽️ The doc features never-before-seen footage, exclusive locker room access, and raw interviews with legends like John Vanbiesbrouck, Scott Mellanby, and modern-day heroes such as Aleksander Barkov and Sergei Bobrovsky. Even former coach Doug MacLean and key front-office voices weigh in on the passion, setbacks, and untold locker room drama that shaped the Panthers’ underdog identity.
What makes this story different? It’s more than just hockey — it’s a tale of grit, loyalty, heartbreak, and the relentless pursuit of a dream in a non-traditional market where few believed a hockey team could ever thrive.
