Matthew Tkachuk of the Florida Panthers recently talked about his family's emotions after seeing him win the Stanley Cup.

Here is a look at how the Matthew Tkachuk trade between the Panthers and Flames looks after two years have passed.

ST. LOUIS — Florida Panthers star and St. Louis native Matthew Tkachuk brought the Stanley Cup back to his hometown for his day with the trophy as a champion. Tkachuk made stops all around the area visiting with friends, family and fans with the Stanley Cup.

That certainly includes the Florida Panthers, who will open the 2024-25 NHL season as defending Stanley Cup Champions. Entering the season with a target already on your back makes trying to win the Cup again an even more difficult task than winning it the first time,

Matthew Tkachuk says he would have been fine with winning the Stanley Cup once in his career. Since winning the Cup with the Florida Panthers, however, his views on this has changed.
