The Pittsburgh Penguins Stanley Cup victory in the 2015-16 season is now official, it’s been engraved onto the Lord’s mug.

An image of the fresh engraving was posted by the Penguins to their official Twitter account earlier this afternoon and I couldn’t help but notice something seemed out of place.

FVGENI MALKIN.

Oh noes.

So, there you go.
