On November 8th 2014, the Montreal Canadiens honored one of their greatest defenseman, Guy Lapointe, by retiring his #5 to the rafters of the Bell Centre prior to the game. The Montreal Canadiens wore for this game a set of jerseys with a special patch on the breast honoring Lapointe, and these jerseys were worn throughout the game.
Classic Auctions is honored to collaborate with the Montreal Canadiens to offer the team’s jerseys worn for that historic game, and each jersey will come with a Montreal Canadiens / Classic Auctions letter of authenticity.
From that very special evening, we have Lars Eller’s worn Montreal Canadiens jersey, and it’s been photo-matched. Size 56 tagging appears in the collar, with embroidered NHL and Reebok crests on the front and back necklines respectively. Styled with attractive dual-colour tackle twill numbers along with the mighty CH team crest, the important Guy Lapointe number “5” patch sits over the right breast. With a custom-shortened fight strap, the team patch numbered A03715 sits on the inside hem. A decisive 4-1 win for the Habs over the Wild, Gallagher and Eller scored in the second, with a pair added in the third by Sekac and Pacioretty to seal the victory. Eller also assisted on Sekac’s goal, along with managing four shots in just over 15 minutes played. With noticeable marks on the left sleeve’s striping band and numbers, the garment has been photo-matched to the dark mark at the bottom of the “H” on the team crest.
