Lethbridge co-coach Bryan Maxwell won the Memorial Cup with the Medicine Hat Tigers in 1987 and again in 1991 with the Spokane Chiefs. This year marks the 79th anniversary of Memorial Cup. The University of Toronto Schools won the first Cup in 1919. These days, nicknames are generally frowned upon.
