SUNRISE, Fla. - Ryan Lomberg 's first goal of the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs came at a critical time for the Cats in the eventual series clinching game over the Carolina Hurricanes on Wednesday at FLA Live Arena. After an injury in Game 3 of the opening round against Boston kept him out for eight games, the fast and gritty forward made his presence felt in the Eastern Conference Final with eight hits and a go-ahead goal in the second period of Game 4. A day after helping the Panthers punch their ticket to the Stanley Cup Final, I had a chance to speak to Lomberg about getting to play for the Stanley Cup, a surprise superfan and much more on Thursday.
