Hurricanes Receive Stanley Cup Rings With Hidden 'Storm Surge' Tribute

Carolina Hurricanes players received championship rings on Sunday featuring 900 stones and a hidden pendant honoring their victory in Vegas.

The Carolina Hurricanes received their Stanley Cup championship rings during a team function in Raleigh on Sunday. Created by Jason of Beverly Hills, the jewelry features 900 individually set stones, including 9.80 carats of white diamonds and 1.40 carats of natural red rubies. The design commemorates the team's title win secured against the Vegas Golden Knights last June.

Specific statistical milestones are embedded in the gem counts, including 53 diamond points for regular-season wins and 66 rubies representing goals scored during the playoff run. An additional 69 rubies located on the interior signify the combined total of regular-season and postseason victories. The side of each ring is engraved with the phrase "Stress Game" and a rope symbol, which the team used throughout the season to recognize players of the game.

Functional elements include a removable Stanley Cup puck pendant that can be worn as a necklace, personalized with each player's number. Removing the pendant reveals an image of the mascot, Stormy. The interior top displays the North Carolina state flag and the words "Carolina Culture" surrounded by a circle of every player's number. This circular arrangement serves as a tribute to the "Storm Surge" postgame celebration, which the team performed on the ice in Las Vegas after winning the championship.
