Richard Adler, Panthers Executive Vice President of Marketing, said, “We have watched as Pointstreak clients have generated significantly higher 5050 results across the NHL. We are very excited about working together to make the raffle a greater part of our in-game presentation and to continue the Panthers Foundation’s commitment to the community.”

From client and technical support to innovative sales and business strategies, Pointstreak works with each client as a partner and our record breaking results are testament to this commitment.” said Kevin Lovitt, President of Pointstreak 5050.
