Look: Bonino snacks spaghetti out of Stanley Cup

Let's get one thing straight: Eating anything out of the Stanley Cup is awesome. And when you bust out the Parmigiano-Reggiano, things get a little extra special.

Such was the case for former Pittsburgh Penguins forward Nick Bonino, as the veteran recently got his day with the Cup. Bonino took the opportunity to load Lord Stanley's mug with parm-covered pasta as he enjoyed some of his mother's home cooking.

Come October, Bonino will start his first season with the Nashville Predators, who - after reading this story - might be concerned with his carb-heavy offseason eating regimen.

We'd suggest a kale-based salad in that bowl next, Nick.
