One of Detroit's all-time greatest players and maintaining a lengthy leadership role with the club on par with the great Gordie Howe, Steve Yzerman skated in Motor City for 22 seasons, with Stanley Cup championships won in 1997, 1998 and 2002. We have a photo-matched Red Wings jersey worn by the preeminent captain in 1994-95. Eastside, CCM and a size "50" fly tag are affixed to the collar, with additional CCM and NHL crests on the reverse bottom hem. Styled with the classic embroidered winged-wheel team crest, the solid red V-neck has been accented with attractive single twill sleeve and verso numbers, with "Yzerman" arching across the upper reverse in matching material. The team stamp denoting the garment as an "Authentic 1994-95 Detroit Red Wings Game Sweater" example resides on the inside hem.
The sleeves and body of the jersey are littered with easily over a hundred black marks and numerous board burns and unrepaired holes are showing up on the sleeves as well. Additionally there are 4 team repairs on the right sleeve and another sewing fix below the team’s crest. The jersey is photo-matched to games from February 20th, March 8th and April 7th 1995 to seven different Getty Images which includes matches to; the grouping of black marks in the white band of the right sleeve below the "19"; the semi-circular pattern of black marks on the lower front hem; the black mark in the upper area of the team's crest and others. Hailing from the collection of Michael Wexler, this Yzerman gamer would make a great addition to any Stevie Y/Red Wings collection.
