Puck Daddy, Former Fighting Sioux forward Jonathan Toews will be bringing the Cup to Winnipeg. Sounds like he is going
to have a lake name after him as well. I was kind of hoping he was going to bring the Stanley Cup back to Grand Forks, ND as well. However, I have heard nothing to leads me to believe that it's going to happen.
WINNIPEG - The City of Winnipeg will honour Chicago Blackhawks Captain Jonathan Toews on Sunday with an event at city hall, a parade in St. Vital and a party at Dakota Community Club.
Mayor Sam Katz will host the leader of the Stanley Cup-winning ’hawks at city hall at 11 .m. on Sunday, July 11.
A parade will then run from Ecole Christine-Lesperance to Dakota Community Club from 1 to 2 p.m., followed by a celebration at the community centre.
"It’s no secret I’m a big fan of Jonathan Toews," Katz said, calling the Conn Smythe trophy-winner a hero and a great role model.
The mayor said Premier Greg Selinger and senior Manitoba MP Vic Toews – no relation to Jonathan – will also be invited.
The Stanley Cup will be here with Toews.
Why would he bring the cup to Grand Forks? He is a Canadian who played for a Canadian college so I guess I can see why he would bring the cup to Grand Forks. Who knew.
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea what you're talking about... Toews played for an American college not Canadian...
ReplyDeleteGoon,
ReplyDeleteI think the Green Hornet is just trying to get you going by referring to UND as a Canadian college because of their propensity to have many Canadians on the roster.
Green Hornet I apologize if you really thought Toews went to a Canadian college but I am pretty sure you know he went to UND. If it really makes you happy to watch a team full of kids who are all from the same area maybe you should just stick to high school sports.
Also as a Sioux fan I love the fact that UND is referred to as a "Canadian college" by our rivals. It is only going to help UND land more blue chip Canadian recruits who love the hockey centric atmosphere and the feeling of home they get while at UND.
