Stanley Cup Goes Home to England
This item was reported by Pat Hickey in the Montreal Gazette:
Cup goes home, sort of: The Stanley Cup will be taking a double-decker bus tour of London this week. It's part of a ceremony to mark the 114th anniversary of the purchase of the trophy by Lord Stanley of Preston.
On Thursday, Lord Stanley's great-great-grandson, Lord Edward Derby, and the Lord Mayor of London, will unveil the plaque on the site of the purchase in 1892, but there are no plans to commemorate the actual creation of the cup that took place in Sheffield.
