I’m just going to come out and say it: nobody has ever been more stylish on their day with the Stanley Cup than former Washington Capitals’ netminder Philipp Grubauer.

The German-born goalie brought the Cup back to his home state of Bavaria and since it was such a special occasion, he decided to pull his pair of lederhosen out of his closet.

Good call Grubauer, good call.

Now that is a look, and a really good at that. If you are going to take hockey’s most valuable trophy around the world, you might as well give it a lesson in culture and style.

But don’t just take my word for it, many others are also enamored with Grubauer’s choice of threads.

Whoever gets their day with the Cup next certainly has their work cut out for them.
