Lord Stanley is on the journey of a lifetime with the Florida Panthers for the second year in a row after the team beat the Edmonton Oilers in the Stanley Cup Finals last week.

Following the Panthers' first-ever Stanley Cup Finals win last year, the 35-pound chalice traveled around South Florida, visiting local restaurants, Miami's E11even nightclub, and even the Atlantic Ocean. It was even used as a pasta bowl for Hall of Fame goaltender and Panthers legend Roberto Luongo.

While team captain Aleksander "Sasha" Barkov said the Cup would not take a dip in the ocean this year, it's been paraded around Miami-Dade and Broward counties for days, and it's still going.

If you are looking to follow Stanley's journey through South Florida, here is a list and interactive map so you can track the voyage:

Amerant Bank Arena

The Cup began its 100-day stay with the Panthers at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise. Matthew Tkachuk chugged out of the Cup during the locker room celebrations, and boy, did he deserve it — he played with a torn adductor muscle (from the bone) and a sports hernia injury to help his team secure back-to-back championships.

The Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort

After partying all night, Barkov and Lord Stanley refueled at the Starbucks inside the hotel on Fort Lauderdale Beach.

Elbo Room

At 6:30 a.m., the Cup made its first appearance at Panthers fans' holy land: Elbo Room. Barkov paid a quick visit with the Cup in hand before driving away.  By 9 a.m., the players arrived at the bar with the Cup in hand. Tkachuk and Conn Smythe winner Sam Bennett used it to pour beer over the crowd below the second-story railing. Photos and videos show that the bottom of the Cup was already dented.

A1A

A little past noon, the Cup departed Elbo Room. It then made its way down A1A along the beach on a golf cart.

Earls Kitchen + Bar

The players brought the Cup to dinner at Earls Kitchen + Bar on Las Olas. Stanley was not used as a plate. 

American Social

The Cup made one more stop at American Social on its celebration tour on Wednesday. 

Maple & Ash

Stanley touched down in the 305 on Thursday for a team dinner at Maple & Ash at Miami Worldcenter. Tennis legend Martina Navratilova drank from the Cup for the second year in a row.

E11even

The Cup made its grand return to Miami's 24-hour nightclub E11even. Videos show Brand Marchand holding the Cup and crowd surfing to the team's anthem, "Pink Pony Club."

Shooters Waterfront

On Friday, the Panthers took the party to the water, making a pit stop at Shooters in Fort Lauderdale.

Kaluz

The next stop was Kaluz.

Sands Harbor Resort and Marina

Stanley and the Cats took the party to the Sands in Pompano Beach. The boys chilled in and around the pool.

Ocean Prime

Stanley dined at Ocean Prime Friday night. He likely had a nice seafood tower.

Zona Blu

It happened. Stanley was once again used as a pasta bowl. This time, it was Zona Blu, an Italian restaurant in Weston.

Pier Sixty-Six

After partying all day at the Fort Lauderdale Beach parade on Sunday, Stanley and the bros kept the party going at Pier Sixty-Six.

Takato

As they partied at the parade, the Panthers and Stanley needed a quick bite. Videos captured Tkachuk walking through the sushi restaurant at the Conrad hotel with a cigar in his mouth and Stanley over his head.

Hard Rock Stadium

Stanley made an appearance during halftime at Inter Miami's FIFA Club World Cup match against Brazil's Palmeiras on Monday, June 23.
The list and the interactive map will be updated as the Cup makes its way around town.
