Panthers And Heat Advance In The Same Year

     History was made in South Florida professional sports over the last two weeks. Both the Florida Panthers and the Miami Heat won a playoff series in the same year for the very first time. 
     The Florida Panthers won their first postseason series since 1996 as they eliminated the Washington Capitals on Friday night in the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals of the 2022 Stanley Cup Playoffs. It was only the second season since the inception of the Panthers in 1993 that they advanced past the first round of the playoffs. 
     The Miami Heat won their first-round series over the Atlanta Hawks back on April 26. They moved past the Philadelphia 76ers in the second round of the NBA Playoffs on Thursday night and advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals for the ninth time in Miami Heat franchise history.
