NHL History Will Be Made this Week

From Marty Henwood at Hockey.com,

All things being equal, it seems almost a foregone conclusion that Lidstrom will accept the most fabled piece of hardware in hockey - perhaps as early as Monday night - and hoist it high above his head. Watch closely. You’ll be seeing history.

You see, if Lidstrom and the Wings prove themselves to be the NHL’s best this year - and really it is no longer a question of if but rather when - he will become the first European captain ever to lead his charges in a champagne shower.

Hey, and either way, you’ll see a first. Should the Penguins somehow find a way to win three in a row, Sidney Crosby will be the youngest captain to ever win the Stanley Cup. Right about now, let’s just say that probably isn’t happening. As in a Jessica-Alba-will-probably- not-knock-on-your-door-asking- if-she-can-use-your-shower sorta way.
