Product Description
In 1893, the oldest tradition in North American sports began, with the awarding of the first Stanley Cup to the Montreal Amateur Athletic Association. By the time the NHL was founded in 1917, hockey was well on its way to becoming one of the most popular and exciting games out there, with teams from the United States and Canada competing fiercely for the historic, hallowed Cup.
