The Florida Panthers' leading scorer through two games of the Stanley Cup Final is not Matthew Tkachuk, Aleksander Barkov or Sam Reinhart. It's Nate Schmidt.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Nate Schmidt is up the ice, the puck on his stick, initiating, creating and generating offense. He's smiling, laughing, chirping and cracking jokes. In general, he's just bringing a lot of energy and making a lot of noise in the Stanley Cup Final. The Florida Panthers are the beneficiaries.
