It's every hockey player's dream. You score the Stanley Cup Winning goal for your team, and get your name on the Stanley Cup with all of the legends of the game who came before you. It's something a lot of hockey players will never get to experience, but it's reality for Artturi Lehkonen. After falling to the Tampa Bay Lightning in the 2021 Stanley Cup Final with the Montreal Canadiens, Artturi Lehkonen would get his revenge only a year later in the 2022 Stanley Cup Final, and help the Colorado Avalanche win their first Stanley Cup in over 20 years. He's not a superstar, but he's the type of player every Stanley Cup contending team needs on their roster. The type of player whose impact is felt by those on the ice competing with and against him, even if he isn't scoring 30+ goals or notching 50+ assists. The type of player whose hard work and dedication resulted in his name on the Stanley Cup.
