The Florida Panthers captured their first-ever Stanley Cup Monday night — 11 years after Virtu Financial founder Vinnie Viola acquired the team.
Florida Panthers were crowned Stanley Cup champions Monday night, defeating the Edmonton Oilers in seven games.
Upon purchasing the last-place Panthers, Viola made his intensions clear at his first official team press conference in 2013. Matthew Tkachuk #19 of the Florida Panthers and Florida Panthers owner Vincent Viola celebrate after Florida's 2-1 victory in Game Seven of the 2024 Stanley Cup Final at Amerant Bank Arena on June 24, 2024 in Sunrise, Florida.After more than a half-decade of inconsistent performance on the ice, a tonal shift for the franchise happened in September 2020, when former player agent Bill Zito was hired as the Panthers' new general manager.
"He's totally reshaped our hockey operations," Caldwell said. "We've had a lot of consistency the last couple years. To be in back-to-back Stanley Cup finals has been a dream."
