The Florida Panthers second straight summer with the Stanley Cup has officially begun.
It was exactly one year ago when we were treated to an incredible two months of hometown visits, parades, parties, golf trips, fishing journeys and more as the Panthers players, coaches, executives and other team members spent their special days with the Stanley Cup.
Now, starting on Sunday, those awesome stories will start coming fast and furious once again.
The first Panthers players to have his day with the cup this year was forward A.J. Greer.
It makes sense, as the Cup was just engraved with all the names of the Panthers, a process that took place in Quebec.
That’s the same province where Greer’s hometown of Joliette is located.
According to NHL.com, that’s where a parade was held to honor Greer, and thousands of people were in attendance.
Greer also set up an opportunity for fans to take photographs with the Stanley Cup in exchange for a donation the charity Clemente House, which is a non-profit that benefits families with disabilities.
Additionally, NHL.com also reported that Greer is hosing three days of youth hockey clinics that cost kids only $25 to attend, with all proceeds benefitting Maison Oxygene de Quebec, which helps “make a difference for fathers and their children” by offering “accommodation, accompaniment and community support,” according to the charity’s website.
Greer said the camps sold out in 15 minutes, per the story.
