The rings - made by Jostens - each feature 392 round diamonds, a .75 carat pear-shaped diamond, and a tapered baguette-shaped diamond, for a total carat weight of 9.25.
It features a "5" in the Penguin's eye for the number of Stanley Cups the club has won.
The left side of the ring includes the player's name and number with the inscription "Back 2 Back." The right side features the year "2017" and five Stanley Cups with the years of their Cup wins. Finally, the inside of the ring has the team's motto - "Play The Right Way" - and the records during the seven-game series' which the Penguins won on their way to the Cup.
For a select few who were lucky enough to have the 2017 Stanley Cup be the third of their careers, they got an extra three diamonds on the back side of their rings.
Back-to-back Stanley Cup Champions.
