Last night, while watching the Hurricanes smack around the Panthers — 6 Hurricanes goals in the third period! — on TV they showed a small feature about Cam Ward and his day with the Stanley Cup. At one point they, of course, show him after the game hoisting the Cup. Quite like the picture to the right, actually. Julia turned around and said “Papa, why does he have the Piston Cup?”
(The reference may be oblique for those either not hockey fans or not Cars fans. The Piston Cup is the Pixar take on the Winston Cup trophy as seen in their movie Cars. The Stanley Cup is the trophy awarded to the champion of the NHL.)
