Florida Panthers Fire Employee Over Leaked Center-Ice Logo

The team dismissed the employee after an unauthorized photo of the new logo surfaced online before the official reveal.

The leaked photo of the new center-ice logo was shared by a podcast host on social media.
The Florida Panthers confirmed the authenticity of the logo shortly after the leak.
The new design features sun rays inspired by the Stanley Cup's embossed pattern.
This logo marks the return of the Panthers' shield logo, now with a red-filled circle.
The Panthers won their first Stanley Cup last season, defeating the Edmonton Oilers in seven games.
