Terrific blue autographed practice jersey worn by Oilers defenceman Charlie Huddy from the Heritage Classic Edmonton Oilers MegaStars practice held the day before the big November 22, 2003 game in which Edmonton made NHL history by hosting the league's first ever modern era outdoor game in front of a record 57,000 plus freezing fans in Commonwealth Stadium and millions more watching around the world on television. In preparation for the big game, Huddy, Gretzky, and the rest of the "Boys on the Bus" took to Commonwealth Stadium's ice surface on November 21st for one last team practice. Like countless practices in the 1980's, coach Glen "Slats" Sather put his team through the paces… this time in a very frigid outdoor environment. The memories and old drills were recreated for the boys complete with their familiar blue and white practice jerseys. This blue CCM knit jersey is tagged in the neck with a CCM "Made in Canada" label in size 58 with NHL Centre Ice Crest on the left chest and the CCM logo and size of the jersey sewn onto the bottom left hem. Huddy’s name and number are heat sealed onto the jersey with all other crests and logos sewn-on, and Only one of these jerseys were issued for each player, and Huddy has signed the back number in clear black marker. Marks are noticeable on the left shoulder, while on the inside hem is a sewn-on “Meigray” registry tag with numbers matching the enclosed LOA signed by representatives of the MeiGray Group and the National Hockey League.
