Date: January 10, 1999

Scott Mellanby served as the second team captain in Panthers history, but that is just one of the reasons why he has a starring role in Panthers history books. The right winger scored the first goal in franchise history and, even more notably, is responsible for starting the “rat trick” tradition.
