A veteran of 315 games in the KHL before signing with the Vancouver Canucks as an undrafted free agent, Andrei Kuzmenko has gone on to play a total of 153 games in the National Hockey League thus far, suiting up with both Vancouver as well as the Calgary Flames. A silver medalist with his native Russia at the 2016 IIHF World Junior Hockey Championships, offered here is this Canucks third jersey worn by Kuzmenko during the 2022-23 season. Done in Vancouver's forever popular "flying skate" style that was worn by the team between 1985 and 1989 and was reintroduced to the rotation as an alternate for the 2022-23 campaign, the Adidas made garment features a band over the inner collar that displays both size "58" and "Made in Canada" designations above a screened-on PrimeGreen logo. Decorated over the front with a Canucks "flying skate" team crest that features beautifully embroidered details throughout, a TD Canada Trust sponsorship patch has been added over the right breast. Styled with Kuzmenko's number "96" over the sleeves and verso in dual layer yellow-over-red tackle twill numerals, "Kuzmenko" has been spelt out in single layer yellow twill letters across the affixed matching nameplate that is in place over the top of the reverse below an Adidas logo patch. Garnished below the collar with a chrome NHL league crest, the jersey exhibits no obvious signs of game-wear but has had the sleeves taken in to Kuzmenko's liking. Accompanied by a Canucks COA that lists the particulars of the jersey, with this repeated on a label that has been heat pressed atop of the fight strap, a Canucks team tag has been heat-pressed into the interior of the jersey that denotes the piece as being a "Set 3 of 5 Third Skate Jersey" worn during the "22-23 Season".
