I love the comments by one of the NHL bigwigs that awarding the trophy to anyone other than an NHL team would be “demeaning”. There used to be a time when being a professional athlete was itself the demeaning thing. Amateur athletics bore an almost sacred mantle.

Sadly the Johnstown Chiefs no longer exist. Awarding them the Stanley Cup would have been a great PR move for hockey.
