A moment that would be hard-pressed to be more Canadian.

Henry Burris and plaid-clad receiver Brad Sinopoli of the Grey Cup champion Ottawa Redblacks used the century-old trophy captured over the weekend to perform the ceremonial puck drop ahead of the Senators' Thursday-night clash with the Philadelphia Flyers.

The Redblacks were celebrated at Canadian Tire Centre for their thrilling upset victory over the Calgary Stampeders in the 104th Grey Cup on Sunday night in Toronto.
