    I love how everyone on the team gets to do whatever they want with it for a day. Like the guy said, unlike other sports trophy’s, this one gets to go all over the world. I think that’s really cool

      They work for the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto, who keeps and updates the Cup. They actually have 3 Stanley Cups: the original from 1893, the Presentation Cup (the one that is the Cup seen on TV), and the Permanent Cup (spelling corrected) that is displayed when the Presentation Cup is out.
      Also the NHL does not own the Cups, nor does the Hockey Hall of Fame. It is owned by two trustees (per Lord Stanley’s wishes).

    Can you imagine if some prick somehow stole that thing and melted it down for its silver? That would be a nationwide catastrophe

    •  7 лет назад +13

      Thanks God, the NHL does not own the Cup! ;-) It belongs to the Hockey Hall of Fame, a non-profit corporation that exists in order to honour and preserve the history of the game of ice hockey.

      @Red Pilled Whitey The NHL does not own the cup. The NHL PLAYS for the cup. The cup was purchased by the Governor General of Canada, Lord Stanley of Preston and whatever the Governor General does, is done on behalf of the Canadian people. The Canadian people own the Stanley cup.

  • @conners3323
    @conners3323 7 лет назад +18

    What makes it the best trophy in all of sports is how there is only one. Something about there being 52 Vince Lombardi trophies cheapens the impact. The Stanley cup has that history.

    •  7 лет назад +2

      Off-season : 100 days in the hands of the winning team.
      Regular : at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto, which I believe is the ultimate owner of the trophy. The Cup is also often shown in different events here and everywhere during the «regular» season.

    • @ServingSaltGaming
      @ServingSaltGaming 6 лет назад

      There are 3 cups.... the original is in the NHL Hall of Fame... The cup we see is passed around each season.. so if the caps win the series we will hold the cup Crosby held last year... then there is a duplicate

    • @ServingSaltGaming
      @ServingSaltGaming 6 лет назад

      They get to keep the cup for 100 days before they put it away for next season... but the caps will have every players name engraved on the trophy
