Ted Nolan is the coach of the Buffalo Sabres. He won the Jack Adams Trophy as the NHL's coach of the year back in 1997 in a previous stint with the Sabres.
Prior to that, father and son enjoyed a quiet moment with the Cup.

Jordan, a two-time Cup winner, is set to be honored during a mini powwow - an event that will include traditional dancing and fire - after which his family will parade the Cup around town aboard a Garden River Fire Department vehicle (as per the Sault Star).
Another proud day for the Nolan family.
