Much like eating a Reese’s, there’s pretty much no wrong way to celebrate your day with the Stanley Cup.
Even so, Los Angeles Kings center Anze Kopitar’s day will be hard to “top.”
As cute as baby pictures can be, you’d be hard-pressed to do better than Kopitar eating cereal while his dog munches out of a doggie Stanley Cup (struggles to contain self):
Really, the bigger question is “Who grabbed the best shot of Kopitar and Gustl?”

Aside: Is anyone else a little bummed that his pooch isn’t named Shaggy Dogitar? No? OK, moving on ...
The rest of the 26-year-old’s day with the Stanley Cup seems pretty cool if a bit more by-the-numbers (although the rarity of its travels to Slovenia earns serious bonus points), but Kings mascot Bailey brings a little bonus humor for your slow Sunday:
