Memorial cup breaks in half spokane vs kitchener 2008

live hockey on www.hockeystreams.com
Spokane beat Kitchener but their captain dropped and broke the cup!

[@Mr500248]

It wasnt even his fault and he never even dropped it if u look closely u can tell that the trophy broke all by itself before he even handed it over because its made of cheap plastic since they are just in the fucking minors and they cant afford anything

[@hahah5739]

The CHL might not have as much money as the NHL, but the hockey is far more entertaining.

[@jameshomewood8856]

It's made of real metal.

[@NorthwestCoasters17]

Playing for the spokane chiefs: Amazing, Winning the tournament: Indescribable, The look on your face when you drop the cup: Priceless.

[@cascade4821]

It broke before he handed it to the other guy... Priceless face expressions on their faces.

[@jasonbrownie12]

0:24 I like how after they dropped it they look at it cause they're in shock

[@AlbertaGamer]

I've watched this maybe fifty times and it still makes me laugh.

[@kekke2000]

If he dropped it, how come he still have a piece in his hand?

[@simplylogan93]

haha, I love how the crowd roars! at 0:26, they're like "ohhhhhh crraaaaapppp.."

[@Renegen1]

FUNNIEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE. lifetime hockey fan. You always think about such moments but they never actually come. GOLD

[@Lammy34]

I love how they just stare at it after it falls to the ice!

[@giskatermom]

I am a Tri City American Fan and 5-6 months later I still LMAO at this!! this always makes my day!! Our 395 rivalry is legendary!!

[@Camaro69z]

PRICELESS!!! The look on their faces was like "Oh shit, wtf do we do now?" :D

[@kikyo4815]

I love how they just stare at it wen it falls. xD

[@Wodey25]

Yeah, that's a replica cup. Real one is in HHOF. "It is considered one of the hardest trophies to win in sports, as there are currently 60 teams competing each year to make the tournament, and a player has a maximum of five years to win it due to age restrictions."

[@MickKaine]

lol, I loved it when the suit came up and said, "You're going to have to pay for that."

[@HectorXV]

I like what the player said, "Holy shit that thing's old man."

[@AnEternalEnigma]

He didn't drop it. It clearly split apart in his hands before it hit the ice.

[@AlbertaGamer]

What do you mean, "finally"? That only took an hour. One of the fastest postings ever.

[@marshmachine]

I was actually front row at that game. That was priceless!

[@Scuba_Steve_lll]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I LOVE HOW THE CLAPPING TURNED TO BOO'S ALMOST INSTANTLY!!!!!!!!!!!

[@barbarian92]

i love the "awkward" part on their faces when he dropped it

[@AEMoreira81]

Chris Bruton: Did I do that?

[@CassieS0uthern]

Me too! I was watching how he was holding it awkwardly and I was thinking wouldn't it be funny if he dropped the cup and then it broke in half and fell. I was killing myself laughing

[@sailesh2001]

its funny how when they dropped it, they both look up and its like silent.

[@silentassassin17]

LOL omg, I laughed so hard when I saw that happen on tv

[@stryder19750]

LMFAO at the spokane player saying "Holy shit that thing's old!" hahahaha... Ah well like people are saying it's not the original (I think it would be a bit better constructed)Wow that is gonna live on in blooper reels forever! :D

[@user-zf3hb8so2l]

It broke by its self but that would still suck

[@arewhyehen]

haha, i was only joking around dude. i figured the "hahaha" at the end would give that away. but ya i know they have a lot of canadian players..im proud

[@Passion8-]

lol! i was watching this yesterday and i was like in my mind "he shouldnt be holding it like that" then i just turn around for 5 seconds and it broke ahaha

[@Sardine4189]

This moment was ranked #1 on Best Damn's 100 Bloopers lol

[@jaywon06]

i get you, ya, but they would have been forgot in a few years, but not now, they will be remembered for along time!

[@shane472]

Change the title. Bruton didn't drop and break it. You can clearly see it snap in half before it falls. That's why he's left holding the cup and the base is on the ground.

[@hebber1961]

actually i did a quick count on nhl sites for birthplaces. (too much time on my hands). edm & suburbs have 28. toronto & the known suburbs have 30. i don't know all toronto suburbs though. mtl had 15 but i don't know any suburbs there. if they are ones i suspect, they'd be up near 25-30 too. but for population, edm area has a lot. places like regina, wpg, thunder bay have prob most per capita of 50,000+.

[@stevenaudet]

Oh man! The looks they have! HAHAHA! Priceless!

[@xxXDCXxxx]

lots of memories

[@mysticanimation22]

It sucks the fans didn't get back into it!

[@AlbertaGamer]

No it wasn't! That was a replica! The ceremony, pomp, and circumstance was due to tradition. The real Memorial Cup sits in the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto.

[@sokhannhem51]

lmfao as soon as it drops everyone is lik oooooooooooooooooooooo!

[@dylb88]

they don't even present the actual trophy, the one you see breaking here is a replica, the actual one is in the HHOF

[@82DH]

sweet this puts Kitchener forever on the KZbin map!!

[@three6zachary]

one of the best games i hav ever seen

[@AlbertaGamer]

I just stared at the TV for a few seconds after seeing that. WOW that was a fast posting - it only happened a couple hours ago. ROFL

[@reckingball]

You are right Ontario produces more NHLers followed by Alberta, but by city it is E-town that has the most players. Research it yourself, you will see.

[@Reluctantwriter7]

LOLOLOL- that looks like it should be a scene in a will farrel movie!

[@Gman32176]

I agree

[@AlbertaGamer]

Yeah, the main thing is that they won. The trophy is just symbolic, and in this case, it was the replica that was dropped.

[@silviobentivoglio7027]

LOL !!!!!! that funny i remember that as it was my first time watching this type of hockey and seeing it ever since love the Junior a game and love memorial cup funny i could of bought a game ticket that game but didn't know i would love to watching the big stage of chl hockey, never been to a memorial cup but hoping to live that dream of going when one year to Western Hockey League host it , one year the Ontario Hockey League host it and one year the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League host as well

[@NovaScotiaNewfie]

The good thing is it's a replica. The actual,trophy remains at the Hockey Hall of Fame.

[@ndet87]

LOL, he's like wtf just happened?

[@mcpherson1985]

I was at the game and am a ranger fan. I paid $200 for that games ticket. It was all worth the $200 seeing the cup be broken in two. LMAO. Never forget that moment.

[@Cameronx]

Saw this on Coaches Corner yesterday. Still funny to watch.

[@Kpoole35]

@ResinThief thanks bud. 15 though

[@edgarallen3974]

"I don't even know how to hold this thing." WHL all the way.

[@jaywon06]

ya the boo's were from the shock & ahh of the rangers getting outplayed in the second meeting of the two teams. the fans were frustrated! and this must have been a bitter sweet moment for the ranger fans, but the trophy mishap made it that much more sweeter for the chiefs, people will be talking about this team for years! and watch out spokane will be strong in '08-'09

[@discobunnywalker]

thats magic, havn't laughed that much in ages lol

[@Biggsy22]

The captain said holy shit, lol.

[@nascarflyers23]

Put some duck tape on it. That'll do the trick.

[@Cromulus420]

In theory you're right but I also know that ESPN reported that the Canadian government has pressured the NFL to not play exhibition games in Canada in order to respect the CFL. This is not something that can be argued as it is simply a fact. Anyways, good luck to your Canadian teams next year as this argument has completely derailed from its original purpose.

[@jaywon06]

no, im from spokane and i love the chiefs! and no, actually it's quite fun watching my team sweep all of the jr. hockey teams in canada!

[@LKDisney]

Oh wow that's funny. I love the way they recovered and started celebrating with the pieces. BUT it doesn't look like he actually dropped it. It looks like the cup's connection to the base was cheap and just snapped.

[@daman717]

hey 1961, how many does sault ste. Marie have? i say 15+ cuz its a small town

[@yusefdoodie]

.......speechless

[@Burghbypass]

Oops Butterfingers! I'm sure Mr Bruton will be more careful in later life! Sad way to end a great tournament for Spokane.

[@AssistantToTheRegionalManager]

To the person who posted this video, Bruton did not drop and break the Memorial Cup. It broke in his hands and fell to the ice. He did not break it by dropping it, it simply broke. Its not the real trophy anyways, the real one is not presented at the end of the game, it is still in the Hockey Hall of Fame.

[@5h3llf15h]

The NFl and the CFL had talks about moving into each other markets, after the CFL left the States about 10 years ago. Both leagues have agreements on their territories. The CFL is used as a feeder system after College ball for player development. Also, the NFL helps CFL in marketing. Its like a symbotic relationship in business. And the NFL has played presessions games here before, whats the big deal.

[@SOLAIREtheSUNBROlvl3]

oh wow

[@S1C2NB63000]

Dude what are you talking about, Mason didn't even play in the memorial cup or the playoffs for Kitchener

[@LASTCARonBROCK]

Oh, MAN, that sucks.

[@TehChaps]

that would suck if it was the stanley

[@llama103]

He has to feel pretty good after that. "YEAHH WE WI-. Oh shit.. I broke it like a dumb fuck. :("

[@skangmox]

wow that was a looooooooong time ago

[@5h3llf15h]

Hockey History!!!

[@panopticon1219]

oh noooo

[@allday87]

that was Epic.

[@hebber1961]

you're kidding right? there are quite a few from edmonton area but not "most". if you base it on a city region "per capita" maybe. by province Ontario is most & i think Sask has most per capita.

[@PatrickRoy30]

Dude he didn't drop it. The cup just broke in half right in his hands. That's why he had some of It still in his hands

[@FelisLachesis]

I saw this when it happened. I fell out of my chair I was laughing so hard.

[@holylightpwns99]

LMFAO!! they both look at each other like...uh..he did it..ROFL!!!

[@Slave2theAxe]

Your argument that no Canadian teams are in the contention holds no weight. Just because a team is from Canada, doesn't mean the players are...Last I checked there were quite a few Canadian players on both the Detroit Redwings and the Pittsburgh Penguins, both still in contention for the Cup

[@mysticanimation22]

So, you could still hear cheering when he lifted it the first time. That's what I'm talking about!

[@trouble42o]

BRUTON is a fucking badass! and spokane misses him like crazy :(

[@thunderflash82]

1:00 "holy shit, that things old, eh"

[@lynn-marieflechner5406]

As a rangers fan 0:24 made me laugh through my eleven year old broken hearted tears

[@BZman7]

i can't believe that happened!!! wow that was pretty funny and sad at the same time!

[@audioonly9070]

He didn't drop it.. the cup detached from the tree trunk of a base.. get your description straight, watch the vid again.

[@RebelsHockey]

it simply imploded on him, and when that happened, gravity took over and well there was no way he was not going to drop it.

[@LawlingProductions]

It broke in his hands guys not when it hit the ground.

[@12phatboyz]

as brand as new.

[@tf2whackyengineer]

Next year will be the memorial cup memorial.

[@robert3302]

LOL! This is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

[@coinhail2959]

three letters r.i.p

[@BFP2021]

what league is this?? i know NHL uses stanley cup

[@mattmauro42]

if that happened to me i'd feel jinxed for the rest of my hockey career

[@IslesGirl14]

wow... I know they probably weren't supposed to hold the Memorial Cup like that but I can't help but think about how crappily that cup was made.

[@EZdick1234]

HAHA! Priceless!

[@limpidiota]

I just broke mr humerus today and i think this brought it back.

[@gareth5533]

ahhhhhh!....its the kiss of death

[@AgilityStearman]

lucky it broke when it did. If it broke during the captain raising it above his head he could have gotten a trophy in the eye. The important thing here is that further tragedy was averted.

[@reckingball]

I had too much time on my hands also, but if you don't include suburbs, then Edmonton has more than Toronto.

[@kerby728]

HILARIOUS...what are the odds? You felt it happening but when it did break. OMG too funny! AWKWARD MOMENT...

[@levimon]

holy shit..
