    That was a good one - I've read this stuff before, but it was a really clean, well set-up article with nice pictures!
    I forwarded it to my men's hockey teammates... we were talking about the cup (& replica) after our last game of last season.

    I'm sure we know the story but the pictures really helped explain it.
    I liked the determination of the value of the Stanley Cup in the past few years...

    I love explaining the history to none hockey fans: The fact that there is only 1 Cup and it's re-awarded every year unlike the other big-4 trophies which is re-produced annually, the fact that it has all the winner's names on it (I did learn a winner's name stays on for between 50-63 years pretty cool). Finally, the fact that Stanley was actually a Lord thus the name "Lord Stanley's Cup"
