Offered in the following lots are five Pittsburgh Penguins Stanley Cup Championship rings, all coming from the personal collection of fan-favorite player/announcer Phil Bourque. The first two are from his playing days with the remaining three coming from his career in the broadcast booth. With five Stanly Cup titles spanning from 1990-91 to 2016-17, the Pens are one of the most successful organizations in the NHL's modern era. Only seven franchise employees have received rings from all five Cup runs and only three won as players - with the other two being Mario Lemieux and Bob Errey - and though they are offered here separately, this is also very likely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to earn a complete set of five player-caliber Pittsburgh Penguins championship rings. All are in NM or better condition, each comes with LOA.

The one that started it all - 1990-91 Stanley Cup Championship ring has the skating penguin logo on the face surrounded by genuine diamonds. Bezel reads "Stanley Cup Champions 1991," left shank has Bourque's name above a relief of the Stanley Cup, with his uniform number 29 below. Right shank reads "PITTSBURGH" on top and "PENGUINS" on bottom, around a pair of flags with one engraved for the Patrick Division and the other for the Wales Conference. Ring is size 11 and weighs 28 grams. The engravings inside the band consist of "10K Jostens" and a summary of each playoff series: "N. J. 4-3/Wash. 4-1/Bos. 4-2/Minn. 4-2." Lemieux's return after missing the first 50 games of the season due to back surgery propelled Pittsburgh into the post-season, with Bourque's combination of skill and grit endearing him to the fans as the high-powered offense hoisted Lord Stanley's hardware for the first time.
