Matthew Tkachuk, the alternate captain of the team, decided to play with the opponents, showing off his comic skills amid the heavy rain. The American ice hockey forward who is also known as the turtle, stated, “I heard it’s 70 degrees and sunny in Edmonton, but they don’t got no Cup.” The funny jab didn't go without fans cheering and laughing at the roast. 

 


The rain didn't stop the winners of the Stanley Cup Championship as the Florida Panthers celebrated their historical victory with a parade, which happens in every sport after a team wins the biggest team tournament of the year. 

The players were seen covering themselves with plastic ponchos to escape from rain, on their double-decker buses while the team was heading to celebrate the victory. The video posted by the winning team read, “Rain or shine,” as a massive crowd assembled overcoming bad weather.
