The Stanley Cup is unique because it is the only trophy in professional sports that is awarded to a team and features the names of all players, coaches, and staff who contributed to the championship. Unlike other trophies, it is not replaced each year; rather, the Cup itself evolves as it is continuously engraved with the names of the winning teams. Additionally, the Cup is celebrated with a tradition where players take it to their hometowns for personal celebrations, adding to its rich history and significance in the sport of hockey.

Do the winning players also receive Stanley Cup trophies?

Cups to Go Around? No, there is only ONE Stanley Cup. The players, coaches and staff of the winning team all get their names immortalized on the Cup itself (hence all the rings on the base) each year. Typically, like in other professional North American sports, the team gives custom designed rings to all the players who were part of winning the Cup. Actually, they do receive a miniature of the Stanley Cup which is about 10-12 inches tall. The miniature trophy is engraved with the player's name and year, and team they won it with. The NHL gives out miniatures for all their awarded trophies, including annual player awards, and conference championships.
