A rare opportunity, Classic Auctions is pleased to announce yet another partnership with the historic Montreal Canadiens franchise, one that will bring to auction a large and impressive bounty of jerseys fresh from the vast and seldom offered holdings of the storied hockey club. Examples are present from 2002-03 to 2014-15, with both important game-issued and game-worn jerseys offered, with a direct line from the actual player and the Canadiens franchise – to you, our loyal bidders. Each desirable jersey has inventory numbers from the Canadiens, with each to be accompanied by a letter of authenticity on Canadiens letterhead, with this section of impressive jerseys offered online with the familiar Classic Auction bidding rules applying.
Brian Gionta’s 2009-10 Canadiens game-worn alternate captain’s jersey from his first season in Montreal sports the Habs’ “1909-2009” centennial patch sewn on the right shoulder. After winning a Stanley Cup in his sophomore season in New Jersey in 2002-03 and setting a Devils team record with 48 goals in 2005-06, Gionta signed with Montreal as a free agent on July 1, 2009. He had 46 points, including a team-leading 28 goals, in his Canadiens debut in 2009-10, and was one of the team’s alternate captain’s “A” as Montreal put off naming a successor to Saku Koivu until the following season, when Gionta became captain. NHL Center Ice RBK CCM Authentic Jersey tagging sits in the back of the neck with a size 52 flag tag at the bottom. Game use shows in seven unrepaired burn holes on the left sleeve cuff, and two more unrepaired board burn holes on the right sleeve cuff, which has a few more tiny burn holes, and a tiny black mark on the upper white stripe on the left front just to the right of the upper tip of the CH crest. The Canadiens Game-Worn Jersey patch sewn inside the rear tail displays No. A02992. The Canadiens hologram sticker applied to the bottom of the “1” on the back has registry No. GU11466, which corresponds to the team LOA that accompanies this jersey.
