Chandler Stephenson already knows what he's doing for his day with the Stanley Cup.
The Washington Capitals forward and Saskatoon native plans to bring hockey's Holy Grail back to his home province, and more specifically, the community of Humboldt.
Humboldt, of course, is the home of the SJHL's Broncos, who were involved in the bus collision in April that resulted in the deaths of 16 people on board and injured 13 others.
"I knew a couple of the guys on the bus, so it's one of those things that I want to do for those guys and the people of Humboldt," Stephenson told Scott Oake of "Hockey Night in Canada."
This postseason run marked a breakthrough for Stephenson, as he appeared in all 24 games and netted two goals and five assists.
