## Resource

Bill Zito, the Florida Panthers’ GM, got a wild surprise this week—Broward County declared it “Bill Zito Day” instead of a regular season kickoff meeting. Since taking over in 2020, Zito transformed the Panthers from playoff also-rans into back-to-back Stanley Cup champs and three-time Finalists, bringing hockey glory—and parades—to the county. He was honored with the key to Broward, calling it humbling and a little silly, but deeply meaningful. The team kicks off 2026-27 on the road against Carolina, then hosts Minnesota at home on October 10th. Zito’s impact? Huge on and off the ice.
