Two mayors faced off to see which one of their former residents, now turned NHL coaches, would be taking home the Stanley Cup.
Dowhan made a bet with the Mayor of Summerside, PEI, Bill Martin over which of one of the team’s coaches would be a part of winning the big game.
Mayor Dowhan’s proud to say a former Dauphin resident’s name will be on the Stanley Cup.
“First of all congratulations to the Washington Capitals and to their coach Barry Trotz and the whole team on winning the Stanley Cup. It was good to see somebody with a Dauphin connection’s name on the Stanley Cup.”
Martin called Dowhan this past Friday, to acknowledge he lost the bet and the two were going over schedules to plan when Dowhan will take the trip.
This will be the third time Dowhan has been to Summerside and he’s looking forward to the trip.
There’s a slight joke between the two mayors, that if Dowhan brings his golf clubs, maybe Martin can win some money back.
The details of the trip haven’t been finalized yet but will be very soon.
