Tom Wilson Brings Stanley Cup to His Childhood Rink

TORONTO – Caps winger Tom Wilson brought the Stanley Cup back to his hometown rink on Saturday afternoon to celebrate in an arena that meant so much to him. Wilson was welcomed to North Toronto Arena with a banner of him raising the Stanley Cup next to a banner of Hockey Hall of Famer Eric Lindros.

Wilson also received a new North Toronto jersey.
“I came in yesterday to kind of check it out, actually,” Wilson said. “It’s an unbelievable moment for me. To look up in your old rink, from where you played everyday as a kid, to see a banner of you lifting the Stanley Cup, it’s a surreal moment.
