It almost seems like fate as the Florida Panthers who barely just made the Stanley Cup playoffs have now knocked off two of the best teams in the Eastern Conference.

After the completing the biggest upset in NHL history, the Panthers have now also defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs in just five games.

Prior to the start of the series, Leafs fans were notably chanting :

"We Want Florida"

However, as the Panthers took a commanding 3-0 lead in the series, the tables turned. Panthers fans began to mock Leafs supporters, echoing back with their own version of the chant: "We Want Florida."

Florida Panthers forward Matthew Tkachuk addressed the chant, taking one final jab at Leafs fans by saying,

"It's awesome we don't hear 'We want Florida' now. It's a great feeling to win it here."

Tkachuk would also say to Sportsnet:

"I don't think they want Florida that much anymore. I wasn't hearing many of those after that game and that may be the best part."

Next, the Panthers will face the Carolina Hurricanes, positioning them as the underdogs once more. Yet, it's a role they seem to relish.
