There are 31 other teams in the league and it’s hard every single year. They want to do that too, so it’s not easy. But we’ve managed to do it three years in a row, which is, I think, an incredible achievement so far.”

Florida once missed the playoffs by a point during their tenure; some years, they missed by five or six wins. They weren’t terrible. They just weren’t that good.But he remembers why he always remained steadfast in the belief that the franchise would get to this point.“We’ve always had Sasha Barkov,” Ekblad said. “So, there was always hope, especially in those down years. We always had Barky to lead the way.”
