Back-to-Back Stanley Cup Champion Panthers Re-Sign Brad Marchand and Aaron Ekblad

FLORIDA, JUN 30 – Brad Marchand's six-year, $32 million extension secures his role in the Panthers' core as they aim for a third consecutive Stanley Cup, with a $5.3 million average annual value.

  • The Florida Panthers signed veteran forward Brad Marchand to a six-year, just under $32 million extension through his age-43 season, according to Elliotte Friedman.
  • After failed negotiations with the Boston Bruins, Marchand was traded to the Panthers at the 2025 deadline, with Boston retaining 50% of his salary.
  • Friedman reports Marchand scored 20 points in 23 playoff games, anchoring a key third line for the Panthers' back-to-back Stanley Cups.
  • By securing Marchand, Bennett, and Ekblad, the Panthers retain a core with about $5.75 million in cap space, committed through at least 2029-30.
  • The extension aims to secure Florida’s pursuit of the NHL's first three-peat in over 40 years, with the core signed through at least 2030 to sustain championship contention.
