The home of the NHL's Tampa Bay Lightning renamed Benchmark International Arena
The change takes effect immediately. The building that opened in 1996 had been known as Amalie Arena since 2014, and it was the site of the Lightning hoisting the Stanley Cup in 2021 for their second of back-to-back championships.
Financial terms were not disclosed. Benchmark International and Vinik Sports Group, which owns the Lightning, said their partnership includes more than $3 million in nonprofit contributions to benefit the area.
Vinik Sports Group CEO Steve Griggs called Benchmark 'a well-respected brand with global reach and strong ties to the Tampa Bay community' and said Amalie Motor Oil will continue to be a corporate partner of the organization.

NL East-leading Phillies going with a 6-man rotation when Aaron Nola returns on Sunday
WASHINGTON (AP) — Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Thursday that he will utilize a six-man rotation beginning this weekend when Aaron Nola returns from the injured list. Nola is lined up for the series finale Sunday at Washington. The 32-year-old right-hander is coming back from a right ankle sprain. Left-hander Ranger Suárez takes the mound on Monday against the Mariners. The NL East leaders also have ace right-hander Zack Wheeler, lefties Cristopher Sánchez and Jesús Luzardo, and right-hander Taijuan Walker. Thomson said he isn't sure how long he is going to use the six-man rotation. 'Once for sure and then we've got some other ideas how to attack this thing as we move forward,' he said. Philadelphia starters lead the majors with 687 1/3 innings pitched. Sánchez is up to 150 2/3 innings, and Wheeler is at 144 2/3. 'Just getting some of these guys some extra rest cause we've been grinding on them pretty hard all year,' Thomson said before the opener of a four-game set against the Nationals. 'The one downside to it is you've got to take somebody out of your bullpen, so you're a little short there but we'll just have to figure it out.' Nola hasn't pitched in the majors since May 14. He posted a 2.19 ERA in three rehab starts with Triple-A Lehigh Valley while striking out 17 batters in 12 1/3 innings. ___
