Stanley Cup's Stolen: A Priceless Hockey Legend

Published 4 days, 8 hours ago
Description

In 1977, the Stanley Cup, hockeys most coveted trophy, was recovered after being stolen for seven years. The original bowl collar, along with the Conn Smythe and Bill Masterton trophies, were taken from the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1970. Despite rumors of it being in a cops driveway or a bank vault, it was found in a Toronto cleaning shops back room. The Cup, etched with every champions name, is worth over twenty-three thousand dollars today, but its true value lies in its rich history. In 1977, seven men attempted to steal it with a gym bag and floor plans, but were thwarted by a vigilant employee. Since then, security has been tightened to protect this iconic symbol of hockey.
