Makar, O'Connor and the crew drove by me in a convertible with the cup looking a bit lost this evening

As they got off the river yesterday my son and I were watching from the top of the river bank. Got chatting with the fella beside me, turns out he was the cup handler. The best part was him subtly praising and hyping the cup with cat calls.

“Wooo nice cup”.
“What a shine on that thing”
“36 inches of beauty”

He didn’t care about who had it, he was just hyping the cup.

It was the perfect amount of humour.

A great shot of the McDavid Slayer himself. The kid is going to have an amazing career.

Love seeing the photos of Makar with the Cup. He ate pancakes out of it for breakfast this morning, and then he went to 7-11 and filled it up with a slurpee:

Mackinnon is probably so pissed right now…

Who was the guy with him who couldn’t touch the cup? I’m guessing it’s the superstition of not touching it until you win it if you’re a hockey player?

I remember years ago when this photo surfaced and people were saying Kadri would never win the Cup because he touched it before he won it.



I'm glad he broke that curse before he signed with the Flames.

And I think it’s taboo for anyone to raise the Cup unless you have won it.

Mark your calendars for July 2027, Makar will be coming home. And I’ll be one of the first in line for a jersey.

Anyone that believes in superstitions like that is either a Scorpio or an Asparagus.
