His second NHL stop after eight seasons in Ontario with the Maple Leafs, goaltender Felix Potvin would see action in 11 games with the New York Islanders in 1998-99, followed by 22 the following season - his last on Long Island. This blocker and glove combo was used by The Cat during the 1998-99 season with New York, with the blocker photo-matched. KOHO Professional models in Isles colours with screened and embroidered identifiers, “Felix Potvin” is embroidered to each, with “99/01/30” handwritten to the interior of the glove in black marker. Moderate game-use is exhibited on the pair, with numerous puck marks to both and rubbing to the material in spots. There are also a few small cracks/tears to the leather on the blocker and heavy salting to the grommets on the glove. Hailing from his personal collection, a signed LOA from Felix Potvin will accompany.
Getty Image #372083 (Feb 4, 1999) has been matched to a few black marks on the blocker, with a faint black mark on the exterior of the glove that appears to match, but the resolution of the image is not high enough to be able to be determined a definitive photo-match. Additionally, Getty Image #53131547 (Feb 10, 1999) has been matched to a number of black marks on the blocker.
