Brind'Amour Wins the Cup as Captain and Coach of the Same Team · Jun. 14, 2026
When the final buzzer sounded in Las Vegas, Rod Brind'Amour won the Stanley Cup for the second time with Carolina — 20 years after doing it as the Hurricanes' captain. He becomes only the fourth person in NHL history to both captain and coach the same franchise to a championship, joining Cooney Weiland (Boston), Hap Day (Toronto), and Toe Blake (Montreal) — the first to do so since Blake in 1956. The win completes one of the most enduring legacies in franchise history.
