President Trump showed off his new hockey bling — courtesy of Stanley Cup Champions Florida Panthers.
The team presented the president on Thursday with two championship rings, a golden hockey stick and a red jersey with a “47” and the name Trump on it. Trump is serving as the 47th president.
Trump put one of rings on and showed it off to the cameras during a White House ceremony.
And he gave his new hockey stick a wave.
“Good for slashing,” he said of it.
The president praised the team on their second Stanley Cup win and congratulated them on denying Canada the championship crown.
“You denied Canada the Stanley Cup,” he said as guests in the East Room burst into applause, adding the US has “a little competition” with its neighbor to the north.
“We’re doing much better than Canada, but that’s okay,” Trump noted. “We want them to do well, and they’re going to do well.”
