Blues team pup Barclay drinks in his Stanley Cup celebration

[seestyle]

Barclay, the Blues' team dog who became a viralinternet star in the club's worst-to-first championship run, had his day with the Stanley Cup on Wednesday.
Let's just say he drank in the moment.
The young yellow Labrador retriever John Brown Jersey has grown to dog size since he was first seen online as puppy in December chasing a puck with Detroit Lions Youth Jersey a stick. And in the same span the Blues grew into unlikely NHL champions, the franchise's first title since it entered the league in 1967.
Because of that connection, the Blues wanted to make sure Barclay got his traditional turn with the Cup.

He wasn't sure at first, according to Philip Pritchard, the official "keeper of the Cup," but then the Houston Texans Hoodie pup warmed to the task. It's appropriate that former Blues great Bob Plager helped Barclay get over his celebration jitters. His late brother, another franchise icon,is who Barclayis named after.

Philip Pritchard (@keeperofthecup) The Lab has a backstory, too: He was adopted by the team to help socialize him, and he eventually will become Brian Dawkins Jersey a service dog. (Although he is adorable. He was voted the earlier this month in the NHL Fan Choice Awards.)
