The Eagles then visited the floor of the House of Representatives, where they received a warm welcome and rousing ovation from Speaker Tom Finneran and the representatives.
The team then met with Gov. Jane Swift in the Executive Office. Swift again congratulated the Eagles on their successful season. The Eagles presented the governor with two autographed hockey sticks. Swift is expecting twins.
