The Florida Panthers won their second consecutive Stanley Cup by beating the Edmonton Oilers in six games on Tuesday night at home.
The team celebrated vigorously in Fort Lauderdale, but this led to damage to the Stanley Cup's bowl and bottom as the festivities began.
The Stanley Cup has a lengthy history of being mishandled and sustaining damage, including incidents such as the Tampa Bay Lightning dropping it during their 2021 boat parade and the Colorado Avalanche causing dents on the ice when they won the championship the next year.

The Panthers’ celebrations continue a tradition of intense postseason revelry that often results in the Cup incurring wear, but repairs maintain its condition for future champions.
