Matthew Tkachuk Makes Painful Admission After Winning 2025 Stanley Cup originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Florida Panthers clinched back-to-back Stanley Cups on Tuesday night, and for Matthew Tkachuk, the final buzzer brought both celebration and, most probably, health relief.

The Panthers celebrated at the Elbow Room when they won last season, and the Stanley Cup social media account wants to get in this year.

Coach Paul Maurice quipped after Tuesday’s 5-1 win over Edmonton that the medical term for Tkachuk was, “He was a mess.”
