HAIL TO THE CHIEFS... SOME CRAZY GLUE TOO.
On Sunday the Spokane Chiefs won the 2008 Memorial Cup after defeating the host Kitchener Rangers 4-1.
Chiefs goaltender Dustin Tokarski put on a one man show in the final game putting aside 53 shots and being named tournament MVP.
This was the 90th edition of the Memorial Cup and perhaps the age is starting to show on the Cup.
Captain Chris Bruton lifted the trophy over his head twice and kissed it and then as he was about to hand it to teammate Trevor Glass, the cup became separated from its heavy base, which fell to the ice.
While that prompted boos from spectators at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium already disappointed that their home team lost, the good news is that it's a replica trophy.
The one that has been handed out to the junior hockey champion since 1919 is in the Hockey Hall of Fame.
"It just kind of crumbled in my hands and I'm sure I'll be all over YouTube and I'll get e-mails for the rest of my life over that, but I don't care because we won the Cup and that's all that matters," said Bruton.
"It's just as beautiful and maybe more beautiful that we have that top off and we can drink from the cup a little easier."
