One of only five NHL players in history to score 50 goals in 50 games, Mike Bossy concluded his impressive HOF career as arguably the game’s all-time greatest sniper, with the superstar the all-time leader for goals-per-game. Hailing from the 1980-81 season in which the Islanders won their second of four straight Stanley Cup’s, we offer this Mike Bossy team-signed game-issued Titan stick. A Titan TPM 3020 model with “M. Bossy” stamped over the upper shaft in red, a date code reading “Nov. 11 1980” is found stamped on the underside. Never taped or used, the stick shows some light wear through marks and smudging of the red lettering on one side of the shaft. The forehand side of the blade also shows marks but remains in excellent condition overall. Additionally, 22 members of the Islanders from that season have signed the stick in black pen including Bossy, Trottier, Gillies, D. Potvin, Morrow, Smith, Langevin, Merrick, Resch, D. Sutter, Tonelli, Howatt, J. Potvin, Tambellini, Lorimer, Kallur, Persson, Henning, Lane and Bourne, with two unidentified. All the autographs are largely legible with some displaying lighter than others from age. Also included with the stick, is a photo of Bossy from 1980-81 that the sniper has also signed. Displaying some foxing on the reverse along with toning and light liquid damage, surface wear, edge wear and some minor creasing, Bossy has signed under his image in blue ball point pen adding the inscription “Bonne Chance” above. The autograph displays well despite lightness from age.
