Seattle is celebrating a sports centennial. On March 26, 1917, the Seattle Metropolitans became the first American hockey team to win the coveted Stanley Cup. Now, one hundred years later, the City and the local hockey community are pulling out all the stops to celebrate this impressive milestone.
Phil Pritchard, from the Hockey Hall of Fame, showcased this historic feat by bringing Seattle Metropolitans artifacts from the Hockey Hall of Fame museum in Toronto.
