The Florida Panthers began wearing helmet decals and jersey patches during their road game at Calgary on Saturday night to pay tribute to the victims of the school shooting at Parkland’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

On the right elbow, players’ jerseys contained a patch that read “MSD” in black lettering. The helmet decal contained the Stoneman Douglas logo and the school’s mascot, an eagle.

The tragedy on Wednesday hit home for the Panthers, whose practice facility in Coral Springs is minutes away from the high school.
