Description
NHL Players Tell Their Stories. There is no trophy like the Stanley Cup. It has the names of every champion whos won it engraved on its shining sides. And when it is won, it is presented first to the players, who have fought so hard to raise it above their heads.The Cup is special in another way, too. Every summer, it goes on a cross-continent tour (sometimes even overseas), visiting every player, coach, and team member who won it that year. Everyone gets their day with the Cup, chaperoned by one of the Keepers of the Cup from the Hockey Hall of Fame to make sure it doesnt get into too much trouble.The Cup has been everywhere, from the bottom of a pool at a rock stars mansion to a ride through the sky above Montreal in a helicopter flown by hockey legend Guy Lafleur. It has served beer and champagne, breakfast cereal for kids, popcorn, and hot dogs. It brings joy to players and fans and inspires awe everywhere it goes.Veteran sportscaster and bestselling author Jim Lang has interviewed more than thirty players and coaches, and a couple of Keepers of the Cup, to collect these behind-the-scenes stories of the Stanley Cups adventures. Each one is special, but they all share strong themes of family and friends, community, gratitude, and the feeling that the greatest achievements in life are best celebrated with others.Product Number: 09781982194444
