Brad Marchand joined by Sidney Crosby, Nathan MacKinnon for Stanley Cup day in Nova Scotia

Stanley Cup summer celebrations are kicking up a notch this week.

After spending time with Florida Panthers forward Jonah Gadjovich in his hometown of Whitby, Ontario, the Cup moved east to Nova Scotia.

That’s where one of the newest, and arguably most popular Panthers players hails from, and that’s where several non-Panthers NHL stars found themselves this week.

Taking his turn with the Stanley Cup was Brad Marchand, and joining him in his hometown of Halifax were fellow superstars Sidney Crosby and Nathan MacKinnon.

During Marchand’s party, video surfaced showing him being lifted literally into the Cup by a couple of his buddies.

In addition to his Cup fun with friends, Marchand also loaded himself and the historic trophy into the back of a pickup truck.

The pair then took a ride to a nearby Tim Hortons, where Marchand placed an order from the back of the pickup.

Keeper of the Cup Phil Pritchard snapped a photo of the iconic donut order and posted it on social media.

Marchand’s kids also enjoyed their own Stanley Cup feast, filling the silver bowl with some yummy ice cream, according to NHL.com.

I can’t wait to see where the Cup ends up next!
