It was on 14 June 1908
that the Earl of Derby, Frederick Stanley died. As Governor General of
Canada in 1892, he donated a trophy to be competed for in ice hockey.
Although the original trophy was eventually replaced, the National
Hockey League's championship trophy is still known as the Stanley Cup. |
