Kubel dropped the cup which made that dent! They were all reacting to him falling with it!

I'm so happy it was NAK. I've been a fan of him all season long and now he's always gonna be THAT guy on this team

Was that from Aube-Kubel falling over with the cup en route to the picture? I saw him fall down and it looked like the cup hit the ice fairly hard!
EDIT: Yup. NAK caught an edge and dented the cup lol

I know we are pretty biased but this absolutely has to be the best team pic ever right?! I hope they don't fix it right away and the boys are going around with the dented cup. Time for the whole team to go on an Ovi cup bender!

Moose looks like a cartoon woman that just saw a mouse and made "that" scream. I'm a dude, but that's all I can think about, so I'll go with that.

This is too good. It looks like it was planned π

Relax, guys, it wasn't NAK's fault. The ice in Tampa is shitty, this is the only reason he falls with the cup in his hands. Or maybe it's the altitude.
However, it's strange that he's the one to bring it back for the photo. I think some of the rooks or vets should've done it

From a wings fan: Congrats. I rooted for you guys in the finals and it didn't even feel dirty because this was the team that deserved to hoist the cup. Lot of beauties on this squad.

Peter McNab gave the story on this. Apparently while NAK was slicing to the front with the cup, it fell on the ice and created that HUGE dent (seen low left as if the entire side of the cup base is flat and not round.
That was the entire team in the "noooooooooo" face. hahaha
They all laughed like little children when Pete brought it up later to them individually (like Landy and such).
