# Boozy Hockey Openers This Beer Bottle Opener is Made from an Upcycled Puck By M | Published 2014-05-21 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hockey-puck References: [instructables](http://www.instructables.com/id/Hockey-Puck-Bottle-Opener-PUCK-OFF/) & [puckoffopener](http://www.puckoffopener.com/) If you know someone who loves to play hockey in their spare time, you should make them this handy bottle opener made from a recycled hockey puck. These beer bottle openers, known as Puck Offs, cleverly upcycle old and unused hockey pucks. The center of the hockey puck is slightly cut out to leave a diagonal dent. The dent becomes the perfect place to house a stainless steal bottle de-capper. The small and round shape of the hockey puck makes this beer bottle opener a comfortable, easy and ergonomic tool to open all your cold brews while you watch hockey on TV with your friends. When you’re not using the Puck Off as a beer bottle opener, you can use it to play a road game and toss it around with a couple of [hockey sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/odyssey-happy-gilmore-hockey-stick-putter). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.6/10 - Popularity: 58% | Activity: 13% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Upcycling Pucks:** There is an opportunity to create more upcycled products from hockey equipment. - **Ergonomic Bottle Openers:** There is a need to develop more comfortable and ergonomic bottle openers. - **Sports-inspired Accessories:** There is a trend of creating more sports-inspired accessories for everyday use. ### Where This Applies - **Sporting Goods:** Sporting goods companies can create new products by upcycling old equipment. - **Kitchen and Dining:** There is a potential market for more ergonomic and efficient kitchen tools such as bottle openers. - **Fashion and Accessories:** Fashion and accessories companies can incorporate sports-inspired designs into their products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dynamic Curved Bottle Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dancing-opener.md) - [Decorative Bottle Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/decorative-bottle-opener1.md) - [Hockey-Inspired Whisky Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stanley-cup-bottle.md) - [Hockey Fan-Targeted Beers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/big-deal-brewing.md) - [Hockey-Inspired Pilsners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dryhopped-pilsner.md) - [Hockey-Inspired Pizza Promotions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hockey-box.md) - [Bat-Shaped Wine Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-and-beer-openers.md) - [Dynamic Mechanical Bottle Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ryan-k.md) - [Hidden Bottle Opener Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leverage-watch.md)
