The Ottawa Redblacks may have only been around since 2013, but they already have a Grey Cup to show for it. The 2016 Grey Cup champions were in attendance at the Ottawa Senators game on Thursday night, and got to drop the puck for the ceremonial faceoff.

These Redblacks players are going to be heroes around Ottawa for a very long time for their roles in bringing the Grey Cup back to Ottawa for the first time since 1976.
