Steffan Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Yes, the 'holy grail' was taken off the plane because of its weight, all 35lbs of it. :hmmm: http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/news/story?id=1865882 I love this quote: "It's not like it's a brown paper bag; it's the holy grail," he said. "It's probably the most important non-religious artifact in Canada."

iownyou14 Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Because most of the players, if not all, ARE FROM CANADA. And i heared that the Lightnings where actually a Edmonton Team in Canada.

I8PP Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 What the hell is the Stanley Cup doing in Canada when Tampa Bay won it? Just because they win it doesn't mean it stays there ;). Each player gets to take the cup back to their home town once, and it just so happens that the Tampa team has a good proportion of players from Canada.

Too bad their parades are in the Meadowlands parking lot every time they win the cup. Can't they let them stroll down Atlantic city's way or something?

bayrider Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 there are tonnes of stories of the stanley cup being left behind... once at a photoshoot when the Habs won, they left the cup at the photographers place and the photographers wife used it as a flower pot http://nhl.com/hockeyu/history/cup/incidents.html Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/208349-nhl-stanley-cup-left-behind-because-of-weight/#findComment-584426964 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayepecks Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I'm pretty sure it does have markings to indicate it's the cup. At least, that's how it is when they ship it during the actual season.
