The Pittsburgh Penguins have been custodians of the Stanley Cup again this summer -- under the capable guidance (and white gloves) of Cup handler Phil Pritchard. What celebrations have they had in store for Lord Stanley's chalice this time around? From the parade in Pittsburgh to a superhero sighting in Ontario to a return to Russia with love (and Evgeni Malkin) to a birthday celebration with Sidney Crosby, we're tracking the Cup's whereabouts (and wedding invites) this summer.
