Holmstrom96Screens 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2008 (edited) http://www.cbc.ca/canada/newfoundland-labr...up.html?ref=rss according to that Dan Cleary will have it Jun 30 / July 1st... he's taking it to a Childrens hospital in St John, Newfoundland on the 30th and there's a parada in Harbour Grace (his hometown) on Canada day.. should be quite a spectacle and i'm sure it'll be covered a lot by the CBC and TSN That is true. I'm a Newfoundlander and that report is absolutely true. And I will be there for all of the celebrations june 30th and july 1st. Im going to the janeway and then to harbor grace the next day for the celebrations. The Childrens hospital in St John's is called the Janeway Children's hospital. I was gonna reply to this thread but decided to read to see if someone wrote about this. Edited June 23, 2008 by Holmstrom96Screens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm buying couple of cleary cards just in case he can autograph them for me. And i hopefully get a piccy of me with him and the cup. And lots, I mean, tons of piccies of the celebrations in Harbor Grace. Believe me, nothing short of a catastrophe will keep me from being there for June 30th and July 1. Gievn the choice between missing all of this and taking a cross check in the teeth, I'll take the cross check. I dont have any Cleary red wings jersey to wear though, I only have a #96 Holmstrom one. Ah well *shrugs* Its still Red wings. I'm wearing it anyway. Edited June 24, 2008 by Holmstrom96Screens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For anyone else in Newfoundland looking to meet Dan Cleary, he'll be signing autographs at the McDonald's on Topsail Road in St. John's on Wednesday, June 25 from 3pm-5pm, without the Cup however. Here's some more details about what is going on while the Cup is here: http://www.vocm.com/news-info.asp?id=29512 It's going to be absolutely bananas in Harbour Grace on Canada Day. There might even be too many people wanting to go to this. Lots of people around here have hopped on the bandwagon lately. And if you are looking for some Cleary gear head into That Pro Look in the Avalon Mall in St. John's. They have a TON of stuff in there, they just got in t-shirts with his name on the back, they are SWEET! I got mine yesterday!

SetecX 139 Report post Posted June 25, 2008 Tonite Osgood had the cup at Sean O'callghans in Plymouth. I got to touch the cup and get pics of it. I very narrowly missed drinking out of it when Ozzy was goin around the bar. My brother got to drink out of it though. I watched it get carried out and strapped into the back of a blue jeep with Ontario plates and off it went. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had my pics taken with the cup in 1993 and 2002. For anyone who's not seen the cup irl yet, its a truely amazing feeling. You'll never forget it. and you'll love it when you do get to see the cup irl. I swear you'll loive the feeling. You know how beautiful the cup is on tv when a player carries it around the ice after they've just won it? Well imo its twice as beautiful in real life as it is on tv. The cup is so beautiful it almost glows with its own silver light. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The first time I saw it up close and personal, I couldn't believe that I was shaking, literally, like crazy. When I reached out to touch it, my hands were noticibly trembling. I looked up and kinda gave a nervous laugh to the Cup Keeper. He nodded, smiled, and said.... "Happens all the time." The Cup is otherworldly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
