Calgary Flames first-round pick Matthew Tkachuk — the son of former NHL star Keith Tkachuk — wore a pretty sweet t-shirt during the London Knights’ Memorial Cup victory celebration on Thursday.

In case you’ve been hiding under a rock since May, Harambe, the amazing gorilla from the Cincinnati Zoo, was shot and killed because a kid jumped into his habitat. He’s now become an internet meme (and the Cincinnati Zoo doesn’t like it). Naturally, Tkachuk had to honor the fallen ape.

Wow! Today was a pretty fun day! #memcupceremony #bigbigrings

That’s a pretty sweet championship ring, and a sweet championship trophy. There’s also no doubting that the t-shirt is championship quality.

Oddly enough, Tkachuk hasn’t tweeted about Harambe, which seems odd considering his shirt. Either way, shirts out for Harambe.
