Has there ever been a player who was traded after mid-season, and then played against his old team in the finals (thereby ensuring his name was on the Cup regardless of who won)?
if you were traded and played for a different team, do you really still get your name on the cup? i thought that provision was only for injured players or maybe also guys who got bumped out of the lineup for ringers.
anyway, larry murphy came close to meeting the 40 game threshold with minnesota in 1991.
