2018 NHL Stanley Cup Souvenirs every hockey fan must have

Finally, the Stanley Cup Finals have arrived. The one time a year when Canadians and Americans alike come together to bond over sports. This year, it is the Washington Capitals and the Vegas Golden Knights. Washington fans now have something to really be proud about in a town not known for much good going on.

The Stanley Cup is a 126-year-old hockey tradition. For me, it’s easily one of the best events in the sport. The Chicago Blackhawks and Pittsburgh Penguins have been dominant over the past several years, but fans of every team should enjoy this historic event. It’s like the Super Bowl stretched out over four to seven games. So it is like the Super Bowl without all the sometimes interesting commercials.

Stanley Cup Jerseys and Apparel

Just like any other sport, jerseys are the best way to show off your team loyalty. The best part about the Stanley Cup Finals is you can get special jerseys to commemorate the Cup.Snag yourself an Alexander Ovechkin jersey with the 2018 Stanley Cup Finals patch already ironed on which you can find a huge selection here. Or, if the Knights are more your team, grab a William Karlsson jersey with the patch ready to show off.

Jerseys can be expensive, however, so you can also look into Stanley Cup hats, shirts, and jackets. It gets pretty cold up in Pennsylvania, so why not throw on a Stanley Cup Finals Capitals jacket to show off your favorite team and stay warm at the same time?

Commemorative Hockey Puck

There may be no better Stanley Cup souvenir out there than a commemorative hockey puck. You can even try to land one from 2017 as that marked the 100th anniversary of the National Hockey League and the 50th anniversary of the Penguins franchise (if you’re still celebrating their win and reigning championship), there are some great pucks out there to collect.

Get one to commemorate the Capitals, the Knights, or just the game in general. They can come ready in display cases and still cost less than $20. And hey, even if you hated this year’s championship, you can grab yourself a puck for your favorite team or player. You can never have enough of your favorite sport’s ball-equivalent. Heck, even a Marc-Andre Fleury Vegas Golden Knights deluxe tall hockey puck case (certified authentic) would make a hardcore NHL fan more than excited.

Pucks are easy to display, easy to carry around if you’re trying to collect signatures, and a cheap way to start a great collection of fun hockey collectibles that’s easy to grow every year.
