Gift Guide 2016: The Hockey Fan

Hockey Fans are some of the most fun people to buy for! This year, skip the tacky team memorabilia (trust me, no one needs a team branded toothbrush!) and try one of these more fun and useful gifts for the hockey fan on your list!

Hockey Puck Charm ($45, Pandora). I love this charm! It’s one of the only hockey charms out there and it looks cute on a simple chain necklace or as a charm on your Pandora bracelet!
Calgary Flames Stadium Chair Ornament ($11.99, Fanatics). These are available for each NHL team (and I believe other major sports leagues). This is particularly cute for me as my first date with my husband was to a Flames game!
Hockey Night Toque ($24, IndigoChapters). Saturday Night holds a special place in most Canadian hearts and this delightful toque certainly celebrates that. It’s also available in CBC, too!
“Beer Me” Bottle Opener ($15, SauceHockey). SH says “Feel that glory yourself in the locker room after the game. Make your perfect play with this hockey stick bottle opener. The perfect assist to every beer.” Most openers are made from game used sticks, making these extra cool.
Expressions ‘Hat Trick’ Toque ($24.50, IndigoChapters). This toque is the perfect stocking stuffer for the ODR king or queen on your list! (My dog’s name is Hattie so I love this one!).
Weiser Hockey Key Blank ($5.99, Home Hardware). Looking to give someone a key to your place this year à la Ross & Mona? Have a new key cut with one of these cool key blanks! (available for a variety of lock manufacturers)
Short Staffed Tee ($35, SauceHockey). Be sure to check out the description for this tee online – it epitomizes Beer League Hockey. This one’s perfect for those who pray to McJesus.
Franchise Goalie Tee ($35, SauceHockey). Few have the chops to be a franchise goalie, but this is sure to be a fun one for he who is #1 in your program and your heart!
Gordie Tee ($35, SauceHockey). We’re all familiar with the Gordie Howe Hat Trick! I love the simplicity of this tee, too. Be sure to check out similar ones like “Savvy Veteran” or “League Minimum“ (Psst! #99 was photographed wearing this one!). They’re all shoppable below.
Frameworth Team Canada Cribbage Board ($29.99, ProHockey Life). I love to play crib and this board makes it extra fun! Plus, it looks great on display in your fan-cave!
Jet Fuel Ragland ($48, SauceHockey). I love this style of tee and the fabric is so soft. This is one of their best fitting tees for women, too – and the biggest Jets fan I know is the lady next door!
Howies Hockey Lace Belt ($39.99, ProHockey Life). The perfect casual belt for the hockey fan! It comes in a few different colors, too, if you aren’t one of those people who likes classic white laces (maybe you’re like Ovi and love the yellow!).
‘Eat Sleep Hockey’ Pillow ($39.50, IndigoChapters). Perfect for a fan-cave or kid’s room!
Hockey Abstract Presents Stat Shot: The Ultimate Guide to Hockey Analytics – Rob Vollman ($18, IndigoChapters). We all have that friend who loves to quite CORSI numbers to make their point! This book explains the complexity of advanced stats in easy to understand terms.
