Cup bites

It's 35 pounds and 89.54 centimetres high.

4 teams have qualified for the most playoffs, and never won:
St. Louis (34 times), Buffalo (26), LA (23) and vancouver (20).

Jean Beliveau has had his name engraved on the cup more than anyone else - 17 times - 10 as a player, 7 as management.

Record number of times a player has had his name engraved on the Cup? 11 - honour goes to habs' henri richard, the Pocket Rocket.

When the Oilers won the cup ion 84, there were 29 names engraved. When the 'Canes won last year, there were 52 names engraved - including pro and amateur scouts and pr men (that's like halle Berry thanking her lawyer in her Oscar acceptance speech).

Last Canadian team to win the Cup? habs in 93.
It's been a long drought. Oilers gave us a great run last year, and here's to vancouver giving us a good one this time round. Don't count out the Flames, either.

Re: Cup bites

how many times have the players accidentally left Lord Stanley in a strip club? Once in Edmonton for sure.

Re: Cup bites

bites, like sound bites, although i guess that's bytes.
you're right though, GDK - bites when the Leafs are gone. They cleaned their lockers out yesterday. I'm getting better with time.
and KK9- I can't bring myself to say Ottawa has a good chance.
I just can't.
