Although Tampa Bay has won three Stanley Cup titles, it was the first time the team visited the White House, which traditionally hosts the reigning champions from the previous season.
The team has won in 2004, 2020 and 2021. In 2005, the lockout season put the brakes on a visit and last year it was a pandemic.
Now it was the third time for the reigning champion team in the NHL.
Biden avoided talking politics and three Russian players were present: Andrei Vasilevsky, Nikita Kucherov and Mikhail Sergachev, who shared the experience on social media.
Players who were with 2020 but who left the team also showed up to the collection.
"With the risk of saying the obvious, it's a pretty enjoyable time to be interested in sports in Tampa," said Biden, who is associated with the Philadelphia Flyers according to Reuters.
