Source? Don't players just get one day with the cup as is tradition?
Was he bringing it back?

Its a bit of a non story really, as it really didn't even need to be made public that he was bringing it to Toronto.
Is it a non-story or something he should have made a huge deal about? Seems like you're suggesting both in these posts.Nobody knows his true intentions and agenda but it comes across as rubbing the cities noses in his success, knowing full well how long its been for the City wanting and longing to win it.
If he wanted to involve the city in his success he would have had some public event displaying it, in a way to thank the fans for his support over the years.
I would think that would have happened many, many times.
The picture you see on the 2nd page, and the one I'm embedded below are from Madison, WI. Generally it's one day but the schedule can be changed for certain reasons. Crosby just had it in Halifax for two days.

Other players bringing it on tour involve the public in their joy and success. Its a bit odd he doesn't take it home.

Here I put posts up thanking ppl and talking to others with no responses ever.....today I say something, echoing the sentiments of others and I get the questions??
Yes, it seems selfish...like a kid who comes over to play and has candy....just for him.....
You played here long enough to know how rabid the fanbase is with the cup...and you bring it here to do what exactly?? Not sharing it with those who supported you throughout your time in TO...
Just seems a little weird....

Cool story I heard a year or so ago that shows what kind of guy Phil is.Probably takes it to the sick kids hospital.
But they didn't "support" him! He's a bad guy! Wah!He's at the Sick Kids Hospital with the cup right now.
He's at the Sick Kids Hospital with the cup right now.
Oh please.
There is no "rubbing it in anyone's nose" nor is there any intent to. Kessel made it very clear that he loved Toronto so I don't doubt that he made a lot of connections there.
I wish Simmons was forced to cover it.
