Just recently, I discovered that my Grandmother gave a trophy to the Detroit Redwings from 1942 to 1966 (year she died) to honor my Grandfather. The winner was the player who scored the most goals during the regular season

Here is a picture of part of the trophy from the Redwings trophy case and also a book page showing her giving the trophy. Wonder what happened to the top.

I wonder if they would give it back to the family
