Will Brent Rathgeber save the Stanley Cup?

The Conservative MP suggests, if the NHL season is cancelled, that the Stanley Cup’s trustees hold a competition to award it.

The Conservative MP suggests, if the NHL season is cancelled, that the Stanley Cup’s trustees hold a competition to award it.

So if the 2012-2013 NHL Season is unsalvageable, I propose that the trustees exercise that very discretion and award the Stanley Cup to the best amateur or beer league or women’s or sledge hockey team in Canada.  That would allow the trustees to fulfill their obligation to exercise their duties in the best interests of the original purpose of the trust, which was to promote amateur hockey in Canada.

How absolutely Canadian!!

If the lockout is not resolved by the end of January, perhaps a Private Member’s Motion…………………

Colby Cosh made a proposal in this regard in August.

The House does not return until January 30.
