Whether it was because the celebration was 49 years in the making or just a matter of personal taste, the Blackhawks' eight-carat Stanley Cup championship ring dwarfs its predecessors.
The 8-carat Blackhawks' championship ring has 404 diamonds.
The team presented the rings at a ceremony Wednesday night, according to an ESPN.com report.
"I was sitting next to [coach Joel] Quenneville, and he showed me his [1996 ring] from Colorado," Hawks winger Troy Brouwer said. "And ours is so much bigger and nicer.
"But that's how the Blackhawks do things around here, first class."
