Phil Pritchard, the “Keeper of the Cup”—actually one of four handlers—tweeted a photo of the Stanley Cup going through an airport security x-ray machine, en route to Chicago for tonight’s Game 6 vs. the Lightning.
Going through security at airports is always fun. Especially with the #StanleyCup. @HockeyHallFame @NHL pic.twitter.com/7YcxhBEFFq
