Let 'em at it

Some Canadians are trying to get the trustees of the Stanley Cup to allow hockey teams challenge for it. I love the idea and throw the mighty weight of the Corporate Headquarters behind this.

I think there ought to be a challenge cup in every sport open to all teams, like the FA Cup. American soccer does it with the US Open Cup.
