10 - Orono Weekly Times Wednesday, June 16, 2010 STANLEY CUP Continued from page 7 number of regular season games (Bickell played 16 regular season games with Hawks, contributing 3 goals and 1 assist). Nor does a player have to play a certain number of playoff games (Bickell played four games, with 1 assist during the first and second round of the playoffs,). Nor does he have to have played in the final game (while Bickell skated for practice, he did not get a chance to play in the Finals). "He got to hoist the Cup," confirms Ashley. "He was the last person who got to hold the Cup [on the ice at the Wachovia Center last Wednesday evening in Philadelphia]." It is, says Ashley, ultimately up to the team to decide whether every last member gets a chance to bring the Cup home. "The team has to do up a schedule," she says. "So we just don't know yet. But if he gets a chance, he will definitely bring the Cup here to Orono." Of course, at the moment, the Champions and the Cup are in high demand, with the top players making guest appearances on late night television shows and daytime programs as well. So it may be a few weeks before a schedule of the Cup's journey is finalized. Ashley says they should know by the trade deadline, July 6th, at the latest. Perhaps that is fitting. Bickell will be awaiting news of his fate, learning whether or not he will remain with the Blackhawks, be trad- ed to another team, or become a free agent on July 6th. With the league's salary cap in mind, the Hawks are bound to make some changes to the team. Whether Bickell is part of that change or not may have a lot to do with whether he gets a chance to share the Cup with his hometown. In the meanwhile, Ashley says her brother is back in Peterborough, where he now makes his home, and that he is looking forward to doing some fishing. Most of us would agree he has earned a little time off. And whether the Cup comes to Orono or not, most folks around here are just plain proud of this native son and the part he played in Chicago's victory. Congratulations Bryan Bickell!
