Panthers' Game 3 rat towel gimmick trolls Leafs, Canes and Bolts
Article content
Take a close look at the photo above before you read any more of this article. Blow it up if you have to. Can you find the three NHL teams being trolled in the art?
It shouldn't be hard to figure out which three teams are being mocked here. Maybe the Tampa Bay Lightning, the Panthers' first-round victim. Do you see the lightning bolt just above the rat's foot? What about the Carolina Hurricanes' warning flag logo near the knob of the stick? And, sorry, Leafs Nation, of course, the Panthers didn't forget you. Once you see the Maple Leaf in the rat's ear, you can't unsee it.
The thing is, in a little more than a week, will a new rat also feature an Oil drop?

Flames appoint Brett Sutter as head coach of AHL's Wranglers
Calgary Flames centre Brett Sutter, right, celebrates his goal with teammate forward Blake Coleman during second period NHL pre-season hockey action against the Edmonton Oilers in Calgary, Wednesday, Sept. 28, 2022. Sutter, who is the son of Darryl Sutter, was named head coach of the American Hockey League's Calgary Wranglers on June 20, 2025. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Jeff McIntosh Brett Sutter has been named the head coach of the Calgary Wranglers, which is the American Hockey League affiliate of the NHL's Flames. The son of Darryl Sutter, who was twice head coach of the Flames and once the team's GM, moved into the coaching ranks last season after appearing in 1,090 AHL games and 60 NHL games. 'This is an organization that I am very familiar with having history as both a player and coach,' Brett Sutter said Friday in a statement. 'Having spent a lot of time at this level, I understand the role in developing players and have firsthand knowledge of what a great group we have here to work with. I can't wait to get started.' The 38-year-old from Viking, Alta., was drafted by the Flames in the sixth round (179th overall) in 2005. He scored in his NHL debut with the Flames on Dec. 23, 2008. Sutter ranks fourth in all-time AHL games and recorded 198 goals, 265 assists and 893 penalty minutes. He had two goals and eight assists in the NHL with stints with Calgary, the Minnesota Wild and Carolina Hurricanes. 'We feel that Brett is the right coach to continue working with our young players, and we are excited to be able to have him guide their development,' said Wranglers GM and Flames assistant general manager Brad Pascall. 'Brett's knowledge of our players, years of experience at this level and familiarity with our organization made this a great fit for both sides.' Previous Wranglers head coach Trent Cull was promoted to assistant coach of the Flames. Darryl Sutter was head coach of the Flames from 2002 to 2006, and 2020 to 2023. He was also Calgary's general manager from 2003 to 2010. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 20, 2025.
