Philipp Grubauer wears lederhosen on his day with Stanley Cup
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.
