Montreal Victoire’s missing Walter Cup trophy found and reunited with team
The replica PWHL championship trophy went missing last week when it failed to arrive in Lethbridge, where it was to spend Thursday with Montreal Victoire forward Dara Greig.
The missing Walter Cup trophy for the Montreal Victoire was recently found and reunited with the team, the league announced on Monday. The trophy went missing last week during shipment, destined for Lethbridge where it was to spend time with forward Dara Greig. A container arrived in Lethbridge, but not the one containing the trophy.
The PWHL described it as "an offseason adventure" for the Walter Cup. The league did not disclose where the trophy was found or how it went missing, stating it was "lost in shipment." Unlike other leagues, the PWHL does not have a dedicated person to accompany the trophy during its road trips. The trophy in question is a replica of the original, weighing around 35 pounds and standing at 24 inches.
Montreal won the cup by defeating Ottawa in the PWHL's first Canadian championship in May. The original cup is on display at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto.
