Making Hockey History
The Florida Panthers have achieved what few teams in NHL history have accomplished – winning consecutive Stanley Cup championships. In 2024, they defeated the Edmonton Oilers 4-2 in the Final, and incredibly, they faced the same opponent in 2025, once again emerging victorious with a 4-2 series win.
The 2025 championship was sealed with a dominant 5-1 victory in Game 6, featuring a historic 4-goal performance by Sam Reinhart. Now it’s time to celebrate with some creative DIY projects that capture the spirit of these incredible achievements!

Project 1: Victory Balcony Flag
Inspiration for creating custom team pennants
Show Your Pride from Above!
Nothing says “Champions live here” like a custom Panthers flag proudly displayed on your balcony or porch. This project creates a weather-resistant celebration banner that neighbors will see from blocks away. Perfect for showing your team spirit during the victory parades and beyond!
Pro Tip: Use outdoor fabric paint or vinyl for better weather resistance. Your flag will last through multiple seasons of Panthers dominance!
Materials Needed
- Heavy-duty outdoor fabric (3×5 feet)
- Fabric paint (navy blue, red, gold)
- Paintbrushes and foam rollers
- Stencils or vinyl cut-outs
- Grommets and grommet tool
- Measuring tape and ruler
- Pencil for marking
- Flagpole or mounting hardware
Step-by-Step Instructions
Design Your Layout
Sketch your design on paper first. Consider a navy blue background with “BACK-TO-BACK CHAMPIONS” in bold red letters, with “2024 • 2025” in gold below. Add the Panthers logo in the center if you have access to Panthers SVG files for cutting vinyl.
Prepare the Base
Cut your fabric to 3×5 feet (standard flag size). Hem all edges to prevent fraying. If using a solid color base, paint the entire flag navy blue and let dry completely – this usually takes 2-3 hours depending on humidity.
Add Championship Text
Using stencils, paint “BACK-TO-BACK” in large red letters across the top third of the flag. Below that, add “STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS” in smaller red text. Use gold paint for “2024 • 2025” at the bottom. Allow each color to dry before adding the next.
Install Grommets
Once completely dry, install grommets along the left edge for hanging. Space them evenly – typically 4-6 grommets work well for a 5-foot flag. This ensures your flag will hang properly and withstand wind.
Mount and Display
Attach to your flagpole or mounting brackets. For balconies, consider angle brackets that extend the flag away from the building. Your championship banner is now ready to proudly display the Panthers’ historic achievement!
💡 Quick Craft Tip
Short on time? Use iron-on vinyl letters instead of painting. You can complete this project in under 2 hours, and the result looks professionally made. Perfect for last-minute parade preparations!

Materials Needed
- Large poster board (24×36 inches)
- Color printer and high-quality photo paper
- Glue stick or spray adhesive
- Metallic markers (gold, silver)
- Decorative stickers or cut-outs
- Picture frame (optional)
- Scissors and craft knife
- Ruler and pencil
Step-by-Step Instructions
Design Your Digital Layout
Using free design software like Canva or GIMP, create a poster layout. Include key elements: “FLORIDA PANTHERS,” “BACK-TO-BACK STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS,” “2024 & 2025,” and space for team photos. Use the official Panthers color scheme and download Panthers SVG graphics for professional-looking logos.
Print High-Quality Images
Print your design elements on high-quality photo paper. Include championship celebration photos, team roster pictures, and key statistics from both Cup runs. Print at the highest resolution your printer allows for crisp, vibrant images.
Create the Background
Paint or cover your poster board with navy blue as the base color. Once dry, use a sponge technique with red paint to create texture. This gives depth and makes your poster look more professional than a flat color background.
Arrange and Attach Elements
Layout all printed elements before gluing. Place the main championship text at the top, team photos in the center, and stats/timeline at the bottom. Use spray adhesive for a smooth, professional finish without bubbles or wrinkles.
Add Finishing Touches
Use metallic gold markers to add trophy icons, highlight important dates, and create decorative borders. Add small details like “First team to defeat Edmonton in consecutive Finals” or “Sam Reinhart’s 4-goal Game 6 performance” to make it truly special.
🎨 Creative Variations
Timeline Poster
Create a timeline showing both championship runs, including key games, scores, and memorable moments from each series.
Player Spotlight
Focus on championship heroes like Sam Reinhart, Sergei Bobrovsky, and other key players with stats and photos.
