The PWHL’s Walter Cup championship trophy went missing while in transit to Alberta, league tells AP
The Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL) announced that the Walter Cup, a replica trophy awarded to the league's champion Montreal Victoire, has gone missing while being transported to Alberta. The league informed The Associated Press on Friday about the incident. The Walter Cup, a sterling silver replica designed by Tiffany & Co. and weighing around 35 pounds, is typically kept by the winning team.
Montreal Victoire secured the cup in May after defeating Ottawa in the championship series. The PWHL, unlike the NHL, does not have an assigned staff member to accompany the trophy during its travels. The missing trophy was scheduled to spend a day with Montreal Victoire forward Dara Greig, a public event planned at Lethbridge, Alberta's VisitLethbridge.com Arena on Thursday.
