The WHA’s all-time leading goal-scorer, this desirable 1976-77 Quebec Nordiques WHA Avco Cup trophy was presented to team captain Marc Tardif. The Nords ran through the East Division playoffs with a pair of 4-1 series wins against New England and Indianapolis before beating the Winnipeg Jets in a seven-game final for their only WHA title. The trophy stands just-under 13” tall and features a silver-plated bowl atop a Lucite section containing a pewter globe. “Marc Tardif” and “Capitaine” are engraved over the metal plaque below “The Avco World Trophy” over the front section, while plaques on the reverse feature the names of the Nordiques players along with “Presented to the Nordiques de Quebec - World Champions - 1976-77.” Produced by Balfour with their sticker affixed to the underside, the trophy is nicely preserved with heavy tarnishing and surface wear to the silver-plated sections throughout.
