Florida Panthers

Champion Florida Panthers players are on tour. See where they’re heading next

After hitting up various hot spots across South Florida, the champion Florida Panthers are keeping the celebrations going — this time with a stop at Mai-Kai in Fort Lauderdale.

On Saturday, starting at 1 p.m., Brad Marchand, Seth Jones, Tomas Nosek, and Jesper Boqvist will be on hand for a paid meet‑and‑greet, where fans can grab autographs and snap photos with the stars at the Fort Lauderdale area Polynesian Restaurant. The sold-out event costs $40 to $149.

But if you’re looking to see the Stanley Cup trophy, you’re out of luck. While it has made appearances at the Elbo Room and was paraded around the arena after the win against the Edmonton Oilers, the cracked Stanley Cup is apparently taking a break until Sunday’s parade.

Players and the Cup have been seen all around South Florida, including at the Elbo Room, the morning after the championship win. The victory tour headed down to Miami as players were seen partying with the Cup at club E11even.

And in a more family-friendly setting, Marchand served fans Dairy Queen ice cream on Friday in Sunrise.

Festivities are expected to come to an all-time high on Sunday, as a parade along A1A from Riomar Street to just north of Fort Lauderdale Beach Park at Southeast Fifth Street is planned, followed by a rally.
