Kelly McCrimmon's quest to join brother Brad on the Stanley Cup

LAS VEGAS -- When Brad McCrimmon was a kid, growing up on the family's farm in Plenty, Saskatchewan, he would tell his father, Byron, and grandfather Angus that he would one day play in the NHL, win the Stanley Cup and bring it back to the farm so everyone could see it.

It was a dream Angus James McCrimmon was familiar with because Byron, a longtime senior player and coach for the Rosetown Red Wings in Saskatchewan, fantasized about doing the same as a child but never got to play or coach in the NHL.

Vegas Golden Knights assistant general manager Kelly McCrimmon, one year younger than Brad, played junior hockey with his brother but was seemingly more realistic when it came to his aspirations.
