No Panthers For Craig Minervini

    Fox Sports Florida sportscaster Craig Minervini will not be a part of Florida Panthers hockey broadcasts for the 2012-13 season. He has been a studio host for Panthers games since September 2003. Allison Williams and Frank Forte will share duties as studio host and rinkside reporter for all 48 Panthers home games in Sunrise.
    Minervini was the main studio host for Florida Panthers home games from 2003-04 until 2010-11. He made less than ten appearances last season on Panthers home telecasts during their Southeast Division championship run. Minervini will continue to be the main studio host for Miami Marlins games on Fox Sports Florida for the 2013 season.
    Prior to joining Fox Sports Florida and its predecessor Fox Sports Net Florida, he was a sports anchor at WTVJ-TV Channel 6 in Miami. Minervini, a Syracuse University grad, worked as a sports anchor at WPBF-TV Channel 25 in West Palm Beach when he arrived in Florida. He was known as Craig DeGeorge in the World Wrestling Federation as a sideline reporter in the late 1980's.
