Who would be the first two Blue Jackets to touch the Stanley Cup if they won?

[Matthew]

In a crazy scenario where our Captainless Blue Jackets win the Cup, who among our 3 A's would be the first person to lift the Cup in victory? Then, who among the squad would they pass it along to?

2 guys born in 1999

If it were me picking I think I'd pick Mackenzie (the oldest) & Boll (the most tenure).

Dubby accepts, then hands it to Johnson

 

[joshjoshjosh]

I'll do it. I'll accept the cup from Bettman.

 

[Nanabijou]

Bob who then has to give it to Foligno after being bear-hugged with a big "BOBROVSKY". Foligno doesn't let go until Bob gives up the cup.

Pick 2 out of MacKenzie, Boll, and Tyutin. All 3 of those guys deserve it.

Can we please just have them win ONE playoff game before we worry about who is going to touch the Cup first?!?

I think Dubinsky would get the cup. He has been the one that has handled the ceremonial puck drops all year. I'm not sure who he would hand it to.

 

[Samkow]

It'll be an untr00 cup win if they win without a captain. I'd rather decline.

I imagine Dubinsky and JJ frantically playing a game of rock-paper-scissors for it before the cup presentation.

At game 5 of the SCF. In Chicago. And the fans there have to watch the whole thing.

Is there a rule it has to be a captain or alternate? My best guess is Johnson as he's been here longer than Dubi, if we made it to the finals, most likely, Boll wouldn't be playing if Foligno, Horton and Umberger are all back in the lineup.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

I'll play - except I'm no good at predictions, so I'll tell you how I think it should go in that most unlikely event...

Jack Johnson gets it first from the commissioner and from there it goes to Jared Boll. DMac would also be a good consideration.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

JJ because of the letter and the seniority. Then give it to DMac

And damned if they both don't keep throwing paper.

Way too early but what a nice thought and picture this is

 

[major major]

The normal order is captain and from then on by seniority. We don't have a captain, so do it by seniority and start with D-Mac. I'd love to see him be the first to lift it. It would be so meaningful and fitting that the first Jacket to lift the cup is a fourth liner.

And now back to reality....

Who is worried about it? I acknowledged it was a "crazy scenario" in my original post. It's just for fun.

Seniority via age or tenure? Age is D-Mac and tenure is Boll, of course.

I say on the outside chance this becomes a reality, the cup goes to Bob. ( who would have to play lights out in order for us to even be in that position.)

Age, also known as tenure in life. Tenure with the Jackets is baloney, not really a distinction anybody should have wanted. That and D-Mac > Boll.

The fifth line. Seriously. They pass the cup all the way around NWA like 2nd grade show 'n tell.

I hear ya. I just hope no fans from the Bruins, Blackhawks, Penguins, etc see a thread where the fans of a team that has never won one playoff game is discussing who would lift the Cup first. I know its just for fun but man let a Flyers fan get ahold of that.

If a Flyers' fan cares it means the Jackets are playing them. And if that happens it means Columbus took out Pittsburgh. And if that happens the Flyers' fans have a lot more to be concerned about.

Debbie downers want to ruin everything eh... I think JJ gets the cup first, then Dubi, then Bob, then Foligno then Joey.... Umberger should get a touch too...

If Nash is in the stands he should get the rag used to shine up the cup...

Oh, amen to that! Big fan of DMac's game.
