"I have for some time been thinking that it would be a good thing if there were a challenge cup which should be held from year to year by the champion hockey team in the Dominion (of Canada).
"There does not appear to be any such outward sign of a championship at present, and considering the general interest which matches now elicit, and the importance of having the game played fairly and under rules generally recognized, I am willing to give a cup which shall be held from year to year by the winning team."
The Stanley Cup was originally known as the Dominion Hockey Challenge Cup
Shortly thereafter, Lord Stanley purchased a silver cup measuring 7 ½ inches high by 11 ½ inches across for the sum of 10 guineas (approximately $50)

Now I don't think that's very gay, but we know your just mad thet people like hckey better than baseball.
And Pyro, lets have a truce. Toronto s a good team. They are doing very well and have won 8 stright.
Calgary has had points in 10 stright games and have gone 7-0-1-2 in that period with 4 stright wins currently. Their doing great. All we hope for in Calgary is that the team makes the playoffs since we haven't been there for 7 years. Making the playoffs is really important beacuse it would give us a lot more money playing at least two extra games and all the stuff we'd sell in the hype.
I'm not going to make fun on Toronto because thats getting old and they are a good team.[/quote:364e8]
