lowest common denominator Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Ok I searched for this but it wasn't on page 1 so... I thought I read somewhere that the Cup could get awarded to another non NHL team in the event of a labour stoppage as per the last cba or something to that effect. Can anybody fill me in on this? If the Cup could at least go to the most deserving team somehow that would be pretty sweet. Then the nhl players and the owners can kiss it.

Markus Alexander Cody Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 How about put it in the Vancouver Giants locker room? Because they need some inspiration right now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowest common denominator Posted December 11, 2012 Author Share Posted December 11, 2012 On February 7, 2006, a settlement was reached in which the trophy could be awarded to non-NHL teams should the league not operate for a season. The dispute lasted so long that, by the time it was settled, the NHL had resumed operating for the 2005–06 season, and the Stanley Cup went unclaimed for the 2004–05 season.[41] Furthermore, when another NHL lockout commenced in 2012 the Trustees stated that the 2006 agreement did not oblige them to award the Cup in the event of a lost season, and that they were likely to reject any non-NHL challenges for the Cup in the event the 2012-13 season were cancelled. ~wikipaedia So there is a chance and maybe not such a dumb idea after all.

lowest common denominator Posted December 11, 2012 Author Share Posted December 11, 2012 Wow, that part of the cup looks pretty damned tarnished. The wiki article sais an agreement was reached in 2006, after the abomination of 2004/05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cromeslab Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Why did they waste a space on the cup with "season not played"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
