Stanley Cup trophy to be in Portland on Monday

The Stanley Cup is coming to Portland and everyone is invited.

Former Portland Winterhawks scout Josh Dye won his second consecutive Cup as a member of the Tampa Bay Lightning’s hockey operations department earlier this month and is using part of his day with the Cup by sharing it at Memorial Coliseum.

Dye was a scout in Portland for eight years before making the jump to the NHL.

The Cup will be on view from 5-6:30 p.m. Monday, July 26, and fans are invited to come see it and take pictures.

The Winterhawks encourage those who are attending to park in the Garden Garage and, of course, bring a camera.

When arriving, head toward the main entrance of the Coliseum, where lines will be formed.

The Stanley Cup was a visitor to Vancouver in August 2011 after the Boston Bruins’ victory. Vancouver resident Tom McVie, a scout for the Bruins, brought the Cup to the Mountain View Ice Arena.
