Like we don’t have enough distractions around here, this afternoon Ducks left wing Chris Kunitz stopped by the Register building (which SqueezeOC occupies a small corner of) with the Stanley Cup.

The wait was about an hour long, which seemed longer if you’re a Kings fan, but this is the Stanley Cup and it came to us, so we waited. All of us except Matt, Brian and Devin who were lucky enough to have an interview with the official Keeper of the Cup. They sailed straight through to the front.

So, Mike Bolt’s job is to guard, protect and escort the Stanley Cup wherever it goes, and we hear it’s been to some interesting places. Stay tuned for the video interview.

While the boys were busy interviewing Bolt, the rest of us passed the time admiring the flashy decorations they had set up for the event.

Kunitz was nice enough to sign Ducks rally towels, photos and other memorabilia, despite the fact that he’s still nursing his hand, which he broke during the Western Conference playoffs. Kind Kunitz didn’t even bat an eye when one lucky fan asked him to write out “Derakhshanian. ”
