It would really tie the man cave together, and it can be yours if you have about five grand to plunk down on an area rug.
The NHL is auctioning off the 2017 Stanley Cup presentation rug that took center ice when the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the Nashville Predators in game 6 to take back-to-back Stanley Cup championships.
