Carolina Hurricanes drop the nation’s next great novelty beer cup
There are still two first-round series to be decided, but the NHL is eager for the second round of the Stanley Cup Finals to begin.
The first series to begin will be the first postseason matchup between the Carolina Hurricanes and Philadelphia Flyers, and do you know what an event like this entails?
Absolutely yes bro: beer skates!

Don’t overthink this. Starting with Game 1, fans at the Lenovo Center in Raleigh can order a large plastic skate filled with beer. Das Boot style!

This is good.
At the risk of sounding like a complete idiot, I like that you can see the beer through the clear holder, and I bet this thing makes light domestic draft beers taste at least 30% better.

Beer and hockey go well together, right?
We’re also in the golden age of putting beer in hockey gear. Two years ago, the Hurricanes introduced the beer bar, which is like what you’d get if you brought Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison together and focused them on their new hockey beer containers, which is, as the name suggests, a beer-filled bar.
And you already know that the crazy people in Buffalo (a term I use with great respect and admiration) will not be left out of this discussion.

The Sabers also advance to the second round and will face the winner of the ongoing Tampa Bay Lightning-Montreal Canadiens series, and they are selling Sabers-branded beer sabers.
And Buffalo fans who keep their beer swords — and you’d be crazy not to keep these beauties for daily use — could refill them with some Molson Canadian. A Canadian beer company announced that it would be giving free beer to Buffalo fans during Game 6 against the Boston Bruins as a thank you for singing “O Canada” when the anthem singer’s microphone broke.
