Stanley Cup reclaimed from the Florida Panthers following wild celebrations
In 2024, the Florida Panthers made history by winning their first Stanley Cup, and now they're giving it away for an incredible cause.
After a 30-year wait, the Florida Panthers clinched their first Stanley Cup in 2024, triumphing dramatically over the formidable Edmonton Oilers. Since then, they've been celebrating enthusiastically with the people of Florida, despite some key players leaving in free agency.
Now, the team must part with the Cup for the best reasons possible, as the Keeper of the Cup will take it back to officially engrave the names of the Panthers into the iconic trophy. The team will join the bottom band of champions on the Stanley Cup, becoming the sixth team to do so, and will remain on the Cup for at least 60 more years.
Traditionally, this engraving process doesn't occur until every player has had their day with the Stanley Cup. However, with captain Aleksander Barkov heading home to Finland in a few weeks, it will be completed by then. This is a monumental achievement for the Panthers, marking a historic moment with Evan Rodrigues becoming the first Evan to be on the Cup after his stellar performance. In just a few days, their names will be immortalized forever.
