CHICAGO — Sue, meet Stanley.

The Field Museum's tyrannosaurus rex will share the spotlight with the Stanley Cup from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, when the NHL championship trophy is on display in the Stanley Field Hall.

Rocky Wirtz, the owner of the defending NHL champion Chicago Blackhawks and a trustee of the museum, will speak at the event. Tommy Hawk, the team's mascot, will also be present.

The oldest professional sports trophy in North America, the first Stanley Cup was awarded in 1893.
