Summary:
"There is no
trophy
like the Stanley
Cup
. It has the names of every champion who'
s
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 (and sometimes 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 ever-watchful Keepers of the
Cup
from the
Hockey
Hall of Fame to make sure it doesn't get into too much trouble. The
Cup
has been everywhere, from the bottom of a pool at a rock star's mansion, to a ride through the sky above Montreal in a helicopter flown by none other than
hockey
legend Guy Lafleur. It has served beer and champagne, breakfast cereal for kids, popcorn, and hotdogs. It brings joy to
players
and fans and inspires awe everywhere it goes. Veteran sportscaster and bestselling author Jim Lang has interviewed more than 30
players
and coaches, and a couple of Keepers of the
Cup
, to collect these behind-the-scenes
stories
of the Stanley
Cup
's 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 when shared with others."--From publisher.
