Sal Ferrara soaks in Blackhawks victory

Longtime team sponsor, and chairman and ceo of Ferrara Candy Co joins in Stanley Cup Celebration

Jonathan Toews and Sal Ferrara Blackhawks Stanley Cup

On Monday night, when the Chicago Blackhawks captured Lord Stanley’s Cup by defeating the Boston Bruins 3-2 in Boston, Sal Ferrara, chairman and ceo of Oakbroak Terrace, Ill.-based Ferrara Candy Co., joined the celebration.

Ferrara, an avid hockey fan and long-time sponsor of the Chicago Blackhawks, took to the ice with the team following their dramatic comeback and win in the third period. Afterwards, he joined the team in the locker room and — in true championship style — was drenched in champagne.

An equally champagne-drenched Jonathan Toews, the Chicago Blackhawks captain and forward, joined Ferrara for a photo opportunity during the raucous locker room celebration.
