00:00Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, accompanied by Vincent Viola, owner of the Florida Panthers, and Matthew Kachuk.
00:30We'll be representing America in the Milan Winter Olympics next month, alongside fellow Florida Panther, Matthew Kachuk.
00:44The Panthers scored 94 goals in the playoffs, more than any team in a generation. You won a record 10 times on the road. It was, uh, nobody's ever done that one before.
00:56You led the Finals for over 255 minutes, the most of any team in NHL history. And you denied Canada the Stanley Cup for the 32nd straight year by...
01:08I don't know. What do you think about that? What do you think about that, Matthew? We have a little competition with Canada.
01:21No, they're great people, though. They're great people. We're doing much better than Canada, but that's okay, right?
01:28We want them to do well, and they're going to do well.
01:31You hate standing here with all this, uh, this power behind you.
01:36But I got power, too. It's called the United States military. I don't care.
01:40We have the big Olympics coming up very soon, and we have the World Cup coming, and we have the 250th year coming.
01:54So, you know, when I got, uh, rigged, when we had a rigged election, I was really angry about it.
01:58Then I realized if I win the next time, I pick up the Olympics, the World Cup, and the 250, and I said,
02:03You know what, Pam? I said, This is a good thing. It's better than it would have been, actually.
02:08So, it's pretty good. Is he a pretty tough cookie? Is he tough? They say he throws the big punch.
02:14How many people can take him in a fight? There are only a couple of headsets.
02:19I heard they have a little surprise. Ooh, that looks nice. I hope it's the stick and not just the shirt.
02:24That stick looks beautiful. That looks beautiful. Maybe I get both. Who the hell knows? I'm president. I'll just take them.
02:30But then we do have that little surprise, and I want to thank you all very much for being here.
02:36Very special. Vinny, please, go ahead.
02:41I'm going to make it pretty clear that we are honored to be here, and we're honored to be here with you as a president.
02:54I mean, nothing beats this. I'm so proud to be an American and so proud to be here with you and everybody else.
02:59So, we do have a few gifts to give you, so I'd like to call down Captain Sasha Barkov and then Seth Jones.
03:08And I think you're going to like the one that Seth gets you the most.
03:12Give me a ring from last year's.
03:21And this year's from Nevada.
03:24Those are big enough for you.
03:25I think my fingers are like you're big.
03:27You're so beautiful.
03:30Wow.
03:44You're right.
03:46You look all the way with this.
03:48Good to slash him.
03:49That's that.
03:49Yes, that's that.
03:50That's wonderful.
03:50Thank you, Mr. Smith.
03:51Did you hear him?
03:52Good to slash him.
03:54Come on, baby.
03:59Yeah.
