But instead of resting, he walked around his neighborhood, Stanley Cup in hand, knocking on doors. 'Hey, you want coffee with the Cup? ' Zito shared on The Pat McAfee Show, laughing as he recalled the moment.

Panthers captain Aleksander Barkov takes Stanley Cup on 5 am neighborhood tour, GM reveals
The Florida Panthers won back-to-back Stanley Cups after winning Game 6 over the Edmonton Oilers, 5-1, on Tuesday night. As one would expect, a party ensued at Amerant Bank Arena, and it lasted all night long for players and fans alike. However, what captain Aleksander Barkov did in the early hours of Wednesday morning is one of the funniest Stanley Cup stories of all time. A Ring camera in Barkov's development caught him going house to house, showing his neighbors the Stanley Cup. Yes, he brought it home with him. Panthers GM Bill Zito made an appearance on ESPN's "The Pat McAfee Show," where he shared that Barkov was walking around his neighborhood at 5 a.m. with Lord Stanley's Cup. "Apparently, he went home at like five in the morning to change and clean up before they kept going," Zito told the show. "And walked around the his neighborhood and banged on everyone's front door. 'Hey, you want coffee with the Cup?'" The Stanley Cup has been virtually everywhere over the years, especially with every player and coach getting a day with it before the new season begins. So, while Barkov's story is not the craziest situation the Cup has been in, it is still a fun one as he wanted to share the celebration with everyone he could, even his neighbors. Barkov, now a two-time Stanley Cup champion, had two assists in the Game 6 rout of the Oilers, including the perfect pass to Sam Reinhart on his second of four goals on the night. That goal gave Florida a commanding 3-0 lead in the second period. The Panthers have played to the point where the dynasty conversation has come up, and Barkov is one of many superstars on the roster that will return for the 2025-26 season. However, preparation for three titles in a row will surely come. For now, Barkov and the rest of his teammates are keeping the party going, and he clearly wants everyone involved.

Florida Panthers put dents in Stanley Cup during wild celebrations
Article content Again, there currently is no evidence as what may have caused the damage, which surely will go down as some local lore. While the Rat Pack seemed like it was partying hard with the silver chalice, one of the more lighter scenes in celebration was caught on video. At roughly 1:30 a.m., Panthers captain Aleksander Barkov came back out onto the ice with the Cup to celebrate with some unsung heroes: Staff at Amerant Bank Arena. It's 1:35AM and Barkov has brought the #StanleyCup back out on to the ice and is celebrating with employees in the arena. F'n awesome 😂 #TimeToHunt — Alejandro Solana (@AlexMSolana) June 18, 2025

Panthers announce Stanley Cup celebration parade details. What you need to know
Parade details for the Florida Panthers' Stanley Cup championship parade are out. And it will look very similar to last year's celebration — just hopefully without all the rain. The Panthers' 2025 Championship Celebration will take place on Sunday, starting at noon. The parade route along A1A will start at Riomar Street and end just north of Fort Lauderdale Beach Park across from Hotel Maren at Southeast Fifth Street. That's where the formal on-stage rally on stage will take place. This is the exact route the team used for last year's parade when it won its first Stanley Cup. That celebration was delayed briefly by a massive downpour, but the crowd remained in full force at the beach. During last year's celebration, players poured beer out of the Stanley Cup at fans on the street as the team made its way down the route on buses. Aleksander Barkov and Anton Lundell drank out of shoes. Dmitry Kulikov caught a fans phone and took a selfie. Matthew Tkachuk made an impromptu stop at the Elbo Room — because of course he did — as the parade caravan got toward the end of its route. Ryan Lomberg, now with the Calgary Flames, crowd surfed. Every notable person in the franchise — from the star players in Barkov, Tkachuk, defenseman Aaron Ekblad and goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky to team owner Vincent Viola, coach Paul Maurice, president and CEO Matt Caldwell and president of hockey operations Bill Zito — spoke. And fans enjoyed the jubilation of a championship. Now, they get to do it again this weekend. The forecast for Sunday afternoon in Fort Lauderdale: A high of 88 degrees with a 35% chance of afternoon thunderstorms and winds up to 12 mph. Information on parking and additional details will be released in the coming days at and on the Panthers' official social channels — @FlaPanthers on both X and Instagram.
