I must confess a certain ignorance when it comes to winter sports and the Winter Olympics, and I had no idea that the Inukshuk was the symbol for the 2010 Winter Games in Vancouver; but it is a cool-looking symbol from an extremely practical type of stone architecture. According to Wikipedia, Inuksuit come in a variety of forms and have been used by Inuit peoples for navigation, identifying hunting grounds or as a cache for food.

The Polar Ice Tray is designed to produce bubble-free ice in the shape of an inukshuk. The design comes from the frozen polar regions and is used to make stuff cold, so it is appropriate I guess. Check out the Polar Ice link for a website that is total overkill (in the best possible way) for selling what is essentially an ice cube tray. [Polar Ice via Yanko Design]
