Best Answer

he did not buy it, the cup (trophy) was made to honour him by calling it the "Stanley Cup" to be presented to the winning NHL hockey team.

It was a changle trophy that started out in the late 1800s, the NHL never started until 1917.And he did buy it back thenfor all of Canada that had hockey teams.

in the Early years teams from the USA even won it a time or two
