Scotia Hockey: See Stanley With Lanny
byScotia Hockey Club, a proud supporter of all levels of hockey across Canada, is bringing back its “See Stanley With Lanny” contest. Until May 21st, you can enter for your chance to win a trip for 4 to see a Stanley Cup Final Game with Lanny McDonald.
Used with Permission from Scotia Hockey.
The trip includes spending money, accommodation, transportation to the the game, and 3 whole periods of hockey alongside Lanny. Official rules are available on the Scotia Hockey Facebook Page.
Once a week during the playoffs, and once a day from May 23rd to June 10th, they’ll also be giving away Reebok Stanley Cup prize packs.
I know that most Vancouver fans are hockey fans through and through and they’ll continue to support hometown boys, past Vancouver players, and perhaps cheer for the opponents of our bitter rivals throughout the rest of the playoffs. Catching a few of the other Round 1 match-ups, the playoffs are sure to contain great hockey and be exciting as ever to watch.
To promote See Stanley With Lanny, I have two Scotia Hockey prize packs to give away as well as three of the Reebok Stanley Cup prize packs that include a Stanley Cup Final t-shirt, hat, backpack, and hoodie. Here’s how you can enter to win one of these five prize packs from me:

I love hockey because it is the best game in the world.
I love hockey! Raised in Sudbury, Ontario I grew up watching the Sudbury Wolves and cheered them on until I moved out West. I work at Rogers Arena for 16 years now, having the series end so suddenly makes me sad but I look forward to seeing how the playoffs pan out and would love the chance to see the finals with Lanny MacDonald, my dad’s hero!! I still love the Canucks…there’s always next year!
Cause I’m Canadian – it’s our sport!! 🙂
Because it has helped me feel truly Canadian and part of a bigger community
I’m a born and raised Canuck fan, my sons are also fans!! Support for our home team will live on, we’ll try again next year boys!! Go Canucks Go <3
I grew up playing hockey. It’s in my blood. When I watch the players skate, it’s as if I am there skating. I feel their pain and exhileration. I’m the 6th man on the line–the fan. I play just as hard and train just as hard.
Why do I love hockey? Because I am hockey. I am a fan.
Love the smell of the ice and going top shelf peanut butter over a goalie’s shoulder!

Hockey was a big deal in my house! Growing up with Towel Power, King Richard, Stan Smyl, Tiger Williams on my TV. I also played floor hockey for 8 years! Even though I can’t ice skate… I still love the sport! Canucks until the day I die!
Born and raised in a tropical country, I moved to Canada in Jan 2010, previous to all the excitement about Olympic Games… and that’s when I got hooked with hockey!!! I can’t stand sitting for 90 minutes anymore to watch soccer, the most popular sport in my homecountry. Hockey all the way!
I love hockey because it brings people together, it’s an excuse to yell at the TV, and it’s truly Canadian.
I grew up loving hockey. One of my earliest memories as a kid was wacthing my gramma watch the leafs and habs play (grew up back east) and wondering “what is she watching that gets her so riled up?!?! I soon found out,and quickly became a fan myself. Am now a huge canucks fan, but will continue to watch the playoffs even though they’re out, because playoffs produce some of the best hockey played all year.
I was born and raised on hockey. It’s a part of me.

I love hockey because it’s the best game on earth.

Hockey is the best on a cold winter day.

Because I’m Canadian and I’m surrounded by people who watch it. It’s hard not to get into it as well!

Listening to Canucks hockey by way of internet radio, while I was working for 5 years in China, kept me connected to home!
I love hockey ’cause as soon as I could walk I was skating on the rink in our backyard playing with my family and friends

Hockey rocks. Enough said.

I love hockey because its real. Not pre planned. The players pour their heart and soul into every game no matter what level they are playing in. And it shows on both the winning team and losing teams players faces.
