The Stanley Cup has been awarded 105 times in the trophy’s history. 105 years ago Lord Stanley bestowed it upon the first winning team and it’s been passed from team to team and generation to generation since. And it keeps growing. It’s huge now.

It’s the biggest trophy in sports and the most coveted in my opinion. The Washington Capitals captured it in 2018. They look to win it again but will have to wait till next year.
