Dallas Stars Owner's Latest Stanley Cup Engraving Sparks Outrage, but He's Not the First to Face Criticism Dallas Stars owner Tom Gaglardi is under fire for his decision to add a personal message to the 2023 Stanley Cup, a long-standing tradition of engraving the names of the players, coaches, and staff who contributed to the championship-winning team. The engraving in question appears to be a tribute to Gaglardi himself, rather than the players and staff who worked tirelessly to bring the Cup to Dallas. While Gaglardi is facing criticism for his actions, he is not the first NHL owner to face backlash for similar engraving decisions. The controversy raises questions about the integrity of the Stanley Cup and the role of ownership in the engraving process.
