BCIT grad Taralynn Reburn started her sports career with the Burnaby Express
A BCIT grad will be part of the Florida Panthers’ effort to win the Stanley Cup when their final series against the Edmonton Oilers begins Saturday, June 8 — by making sure every seat in the team’s Amerant Bank Arena is filled.
“This market can be quite fickle,” Reburn said. “Fans traditionally go in the direction of the team who’s winning.” Following her stint with the Express that ended in 2012 with the team back in Coquitlam, Reburn spent almost two years in sales roles with the Vancouver Whitecaps soccer team and more than eight years with the Vancouver Canucks. She said connections she made within the industry led her to Florida in 2022 even though she’d never been there before.It’s also been a lot of work.
“There’s a visible increased interest in the team,” Reburn said. “I overhear more conversations in the grocery store now about the Panthers than I ever have before.”
