Matching superstars Sidney Crosby and Alexander Ovechkin, the 2011 Winter Classic between the Pittsburgh Penguins and Washington Capitals occurred on New Year’s Day, 2011, at Heinz Field, in front of just over 68,000, with the hometown Pens losing to the visiting Caps, 3-1. This puck was used by Mike Knuble of the Capitals to notch the 2nd goal of the game, on the power play, at 6:54 of the second to tie the score 1-1, with Nicklas Backstrom and Mike Green assisting. Featuring a 2011 Winter Classic logo with NHL shield crest over the reverse, the puck exhibits light game use. A decal numbered “142075” has been affixed to the puck, with a matching NHL/MeiGray LOA to accompany along with a COR from MeiGray.
We should note that 13 pucks from the 2011 match (4 goal pucks and 9 game-used pucks) were handed directly from an on-ice official to an NHL/MeiGray Authentication Program director to be authenticated and labeled, including the offered example.
