		Lord Stanley of Preston must have been a hockey fan, because in 1892 the Canadian Governor-General paid about $50 for a trophy and declared it a "challenge cup" to be held by the best amateur hockey team in Canada.
		The Stanley behind the Stanley Cup was Lord Stanley of Preston, the Governor General of Canada (the Queen's Representative to the Dominion of Canada), the sixth in the long regal line.
		The Stanley Cup is insured for $75,000, but for so many, spending a summer or a day or a moment with arguably the most cherished trophy in sport is, to steal a phrase from a credit card commercial, priceless.

		When it finally came his turn to speak to the adoring crowd, Messier turned the focus towards his constituents, saying that the night should be about celebrating "the Garden faithful," his affectionate name for the Rangers' loyal fans.
		After 75 minutes, the ceremony came to a raucous climax, as Messier lifted the Stanley Cup in the air for one final time and then watched as his #11 banner was raised to the rafters.
