Panthers celebrate Stanley Cup win with banner ceremony, eye historic three-peat as NHL kings

The Panthers aim to become the first NHL team since the 1980s Islanders to win three straight Stanley Cups, despite key players facing long-term injuries.

  • On Tuesday the Florida Panthers raised their 2024-25 championship banner at Amerant Bank Arena, with Assistant captain Aaron Ekblad hoisting the Stanley Cup as fans roared.
  • With a rare chance at a three-peat, the Florida Panthers could be the first since the New York Islanders' 1980–1983 run, as players said the repeat fuels hunger to 'turn the page'.
  • Fans lined up outside Amerant Bank Arena Tuesday afternoon for photos with the Stanley Cup, many arriving before the unusual 5 p.m. weekday start; players saluted after receiving championship rings Monday night.
  • Captain Aleksander Barkov is sidelined after tearing two ligaments 20 minutes into practice, while Forward Matthew Tkachuk remains out until likely December, complicating this season’s path.
  • Looking ahead, the Florida Panthers hope to put 'a few more dings' in the Stanley Cup next year, while the banner keeps last year's white background and red lettering with 2025 updated.
