More than seven months after the Florida Panthers won their first Stanley Cup, the team visited the White House on Monday, during which President Donald Trump recounted "one of the most riveting comebacks in NHL history.

Though the ceremony was delayed because President Donald Trump was talking to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about pausing tariffs on the country, he did eventually hold a celebration for the Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers on Monday.

He praised the Panthers for going from losing in the final in 2023 to Vegas to winning the first title in franchise history, jokingly comparing it to his path back to the White House.
