First, Teravainen spent a couple days with the Stanley Cup, showing it to the fans in his neighborhood and taking pictures with his family.

After Teravainen spent two days parading the Stanley Cup around his hometown of Helsinki, the keeper of the cup traveled 241 miles north to Kuopio for Timonen to spend time with the cup.
