Selected eighth overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs at the 2014 NHL Entry Draft, William Nylander has spent his entire career with the Maple Leafs at the time of this writing, seemingly getting better with each passing season and registering the first 40 goal campaign of his career in 2022-23. Hitting the 40 goal mark again in 2023-24 and having represented his home country on numerous occasions throughout his career, winning gold at the World Championships in 2017, a tournament he was named the MVP of, offered here is the Team Sweden jersey worn by William at the 2019 World Championships that saw him lead the event in scoring with 18 points in 8 games played, earning him tournament all-star team honours. Made by Nike, size "58", "Made in Canada" and Swoosh logos have been screened on to the inner collar above a sewn on "IIHF Authentic Collection" label while an IIHF logo patch has been added over the reverse hem. Sporting an additional Nike Swoosh logo over the right breast, the front of the jersey is decorated with Sweden's three crowns team crest in tackle twill style with a thin metallic blue vinyl layer around the edge of each. Also having had the logo of the Swedish Ice Hockey Association sublimated into the material atop of both shoulders, matching "Svenska Spel" sponsorship patches have been sewn on over both sleeves as well. Having been styled over the sleeves and verso with Nylander's number "88" in dual layer sublimated twill numerals that have been heat-pressed on, "Nylander" has been spelt out in single layer yellow twill numerals that have been heat pressed on across the affixed matching nameplate at the top of the reverse. Sporting its original fight strap on the interior as well as a Nike Team Sports barcode label, the jersey shows good game-wear via board burns over the front, reverse and both sleeves plus a stick mark through the top right crown on the front. Regarding the photo-match, the jersey has been matched with Getty Image #1142601756 (May 10th, 2019 vs Czechia) to the loose threads off the top of the IIHF patch over the lower reverse.
