from Mark Brooky of the Grand Haven Tribune,
The Grand Haven native brought the Stanley Cup, the prize for winning the NHL championship, to the city’s Municipal Marina.
Bylsma is head coach of the Pittsburgh Penguins, who won the Cup by beating the Detroit Red Wings in seven games in June.
He took it fishing on Lake Michigan this morning aboard the Tammy Too III, then hoisted it from the back of the boat down the Grand Haven channel to the marina. The NHL Eastern Conference trophy followed in another charter boat.
The line to view the trophy up close began forming around 11 a.m. — and, by the time Bylsma carried the trophy from the charter boat docks to the marina lawn at noon, it wound east of the Chinook Pier buildings.
continued with a cool video too…

Kukla’s Korner is always a free service for readers, but it costs some money to maintain. If you’re ever in a position to donate a few dollars to help out, we’d be very appreciative.
The fact that Dan gets his time with the Cup almost makes it all palatable. He’s among the classiest guys in the NHL…and probably more responsible for the Pens win than either Rosby or Malkin. So, hats off to West Michigan-native Dan Bylsma. He deserves to be a champion. I just wish it wasn’t this year.
