helm porch

The Stanley Cup has been to plenty of parties, seen large crowds and been on all sorts of transportation, but Darren Helm prefers the cool evening breezes of Anytown, USA.

In this particular case, it was a morning breeze that Helm and the Cup were feeling on the porch of his Michigan home.
The Avalanche shared a photo of the forward looking very peaceful at the start of his day with the Stanley Cup.

Later the Cup met the whole Helm clan, even the family dog.

The pup even got a chance to sit in the Cup.

The experience was perfectly summed up but Helm's daughters.

After a busy day like that, the Greatest Trophy in All of Sports probably appreciated the early morning down time. Who couldn't use a little rest and relaxtion in the offseason?
