Nicklas Backstrom Keeps Getting Goofy Giveaways

As if the Nicklas Backstrom Garden Gnome stadium giveaway didn’t make him look silly enough, This season’s Caps Holiday Pack features a bobblehead of Backstrom dressed as a Christmas elf.

Past holiday packs have featured the infamous Caps gravy boat, which is still in high demand and can still fetch more than $100 on eBay, and other bobbleheads of players not dressed up in costumes. Some fans who attended the gravy boat game ended up selling their gravy boat and making money – and still went to the game.

While it’s a lock that fans will be clamoring for the Backstrom as an elf bobblehead, what it’ll go for in the secondary market remains to be scene.
