<p>While celebrating with his <a href="https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/teams/florida-panthers/line-combinations">Florida Panthers </a>teammates after winning their second consecutive Stanley Cup championship, Sam Bennett found his inner Jordan Belfort and had four words for the hundreds of partygoers inside the undisclosed club. </p>



<p>“I ain’t f–king leaving!” </p>

<p>The 28-year-old Bennett was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1, but the speech that’s now made the rounds on social media indicates he will stay with the Panthers, the team he joined midway through the 2020-21 season in a trade with the <a href="https://flamesnation.ca/">Calgary Flames</a>. </p>



<p>For those who may not get the reference, Bennett was quoting the 2013 film <em>The Wolf of Wall Street</em>, where Belfort, played by Leonardo DiCaprio, was originally going to leave his brokerage firm and negotiate a deal with the FBI to keep him out of prison. However, Belfort decides midway through the speech that he doesn’t want to step down, leading to him yelling “I’m not f–king leaving!” </p><div class="injected-ad injected-video" data-nn-ad-tech-injection-count="0" data-nn-ad-tech-max-gap="130" data-nn-ad-tech-current-gap="187"></div>
