Engraving mistakes

Several mistakes happened in the engraving of the names:
* Gus Mortson's last name was misspelled WORTSON with a "W" instead a "M".
* Danny Lewecki's last name was misspelled LEWESKI, with a "S" instead of a "C".
* Ted Kennedy's name was misspelled KENNEDYY with an extra "Y". His position as Captain was also left off the Stanley Cup.
* William A. H. MacBrien's last name was misspelled as McBrien.
* Elwin "Al" Rollins' first name was misspelled ELVIN with a "V" instead a "W". The Rollins mistake was not corrected on the Replica Cup created in 1992–93. The other 4 mistakes were corrected on the Replica Cup.
