Stephenson to bring Stanley Cup to Humboldt
As he promised after winning the Stanley Cup, Washington Capitals forward Chandler Stephenson will bring the silver mug to Humboldt on Friday to highlight Humboldt Hockey Day.
As the Caps were still on the ice celebrating their cup clinching victory on June 7, Stephenson said in a live interview on Hockey Night in Canada that it was important for him to head to Humboldt to celebrate with the community.
“I knew a couple of the guys on the bus,” Stephenson said. “It’s one of those things that I want to do for those guys and the people of Humboldt.”
The cup will be on display from noon to 1:30 p.m. at the Elgar Peterson Arena.
