Pat Riley still gets the title of best executive in this town because of his track record over decades. But what Bill Zito has done in four years is beyond incredible. The term “Midas Touch” isn’t even enough praise for him. There isn’t a better 4 year run of GM work in the history of this town. Even the Big 3 Heat.
Definitely deserves a statue, he literally saved the franchise. So happy that the panthers are a top team in the league now. Hope we can finish the job
Great GM. The Tkachuk trade, Forsling acquisition, and Bennett trades were all absolute coups that turned a pushover team into a potential cup winner. Really impressive stuff.
Us Panthers Fans love Bill Zito! He fixed our team and we might finally win our first Stanley Cup! Thank you Bill Zito! This interview is awesome! GO PANTHERS! ❤️💙🐆
as a canadian-born tampa fan, i really appreciate this video about bill zito. he's done a great job putting FLA where they are over the past 4 years. too much deluional canadian people up here dick-riding EDM and not giving the proper respect FLA deserves. the canadian media here is more oilers biased, but they have done a decent job talking about and covering FLA. am picking florida in 6 games to win the cup. keep up the excellent hockey coverage, pat mcafee show! cheers from southern ontario, canada 🍁
What are you talking about it started with a Florida sports caster making the stupidest remarks that anyone who knows hockey was b.s but your take is way out there both teams both have a chance the one team standing at end with the cup is the best this series is so close and closer then most people think
All 3 teams oilers beat to get hear two of them got the playoff curse going by being disrespectful during anthems and b.s talk and both Vancouver and Dallas both lost and they were both suppose to kill oilers but soon as bad mouthing b.s talk disrespect the playoffs curse hits teams every year so be careful
A shout out to Dale Tallon who put together much of what Bill Zito inherited and took to another level. Both men are important to why Panthers are where they are. Good luck to the Cats. Panthers in 5.
Marlins issue in my IMO is ownership, and has been for a long, long time. No GM wants to work for them. It's pointless. Bill Zito's success is also because of the massive support from Viola and company. It's why the team has been on the rise since the day Vincent Viola and his family bought the team. Panthers fans are so fortunate someone wanted to own the team to win, versus simply having a place to eat lunch and drink beer and also happen to let the public join in on a little bit of fun, which is how I view the Marlins organization. It stinks.
As an Edmontonian, and Oiler fan, we are both very equal, with speed, talent, skill. Some other pros and cons for either side. This battle will be awesome, and I'm glad its you guys we are in this with. With that said, you have never played in a building like ours during playoffs. Your players will experience something they have always dreamed of. Its a religion up here. Spine tingling. Let the best team win, this will be great!
@@brett3140 Hard to say. I would think MSG and Toronto, mainly only have corporate seats as they are so expensive. That means in my opinion, a passive fan, only there because they were given tickets corporately. Where in Edmonton, the actual fan base buys tickets. Which means they are more die hard and care. Wayne Gretzky talks about this in his interview with Connor a few years back.
Bill you gotta do better with the back drop your in South Florida my dude, it looks like your in an isis stronghold . Keep up the great work Go Ice Cats!
I mean the Panthers have like 10 UFAs this offseason. If they win the cup you're gonna see a lot of guys walking. It's called "the cup tax" for a reason.
As a Panthers fan thank you so much for this interview. I absolutely love this man.
Same bro
He deserves a statue

Bill Zito deserves a statue if he brings a cup to Sunrise. He’s been a godsend for us diehard Panthers fans

Start casting the mold

Reinhardt as well
One more win and GM Bill Zito is a cup winning GM! He deserves the GM of the year award but nothing else beats winning the Stanley Cup!
BEST GM IN HOCKEY

I want zeto and pat riley to just do a interview together just so Boston spots fans seethe like they never have before
I would love to see a round table with pat/spo, zito/paul, grier/Mike, and skip/Peter and just talk about sports. I will buy that VHS TAPE

As a Panther fan. Dale Tallon can go kick rocks. He held us back for so long
Dale Tallon is responsible for like 3 or 4 players on the entire panthers roster.
@@soflo549 literally just, barky, ekk, bob, and eetu since dale traded troch. Besides that the other 80% is all Bill
It was chilly and rainy out this morning in Edmonton, I put the heat on for awhile.
Any chance he can GM for Marlins too?? Cus we are absolute doodoo water

I wish. Too bad they’d rather keep washing money instead of making more. Maybe this year they start drafting who knows

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Oilers in 3 ⛽️
Panthers in 2
don't look for players that love to win. look for players that hate to lose. Shoresy
Pat has such bad ADHD for an interviewer lol
Panthers will win the 1st game 8-3,, my prediction
If P diddys crimes had a face it would be these 3 guys …
I feel like I get dumber by the second listening to pat talk ..
Why does Bill Zito look so... thin? Did he lose a lot of weight? I hope it's just diet and exercise and nothing negative
Bill you gotta do better with the back drop your in South Florida my dude, it looks like your in an isis stronghold . Keep up the great work Go Ice Cats!
Pat McAfee is a big jabronie!!!!
fake explosive guy zito throw the bottle
To go along with his fake Stanley Cup ring, right? Right?
Ask about the owner of panthers shady as fouck.bill get a new mic.
How did the stinking Panthers get good.THE LIGHTNING LOST ALL THEIR GOOD PLAYERS TO THE CAP.
Let Verhaeghe go for free and now he’s a star for us 🫶
@@Smorj3 they had to.
It happens to all teams
How did the stinking Lighting get so good. The Bruins and the Rangers lost all their good players to the CAP
