A Conn Smythe Trophy winner and member of the prestigious Triple Gold club, Nicklas Lidstrom enjoyed an especially successful campaign in 2007-08, winning his sixth James Norris Trophy and receiving his ninth NHL First All-Star Team selection all while helping lead the Detroit Red Wings to a Stanley Cup championship. These signed skates were worn by Lidstrom during the 2008 Stanley Cup playoffs, and are photo-matched to the Cup-clinching Game 6 of the Finals, won by Detroit 3-2 vs Pittsburgh, on June 4, 2008. Easton Synergy 1500 models with Tuuk Custom+ blade holders, “Lidstrom 9-10” decals grace each underside boot, with “SCF 08” handwritten to each interior. Good game-use is shown on the pair, with cuts and marks to the material on the boots along with dark marks to each bade holder. Lidstrom has signed the outside section of each blade holder in black marker, with the signatures remaining bold. Getty Image #81437029 (Game 6 Stanley Cup Finals, June 4, 2008) has been matched to the cut on the back portion of the outside section of the left skate, with the image also matched to black mark in the middle portion of the inside section of the blade holder on the right skate. Additionally, Getty Image #81340812 (Game 4 Stanley Cup Finals, May 31, 2008) has been matched to the cut on the back portion of the outside section of the left skate, with the large black mark near it also visible. We should further note that the skates may have been worn after the Finals, as marks are present that do not show up in the Game 6 Getty Image. Also included, we have a pair of Red Wings Reebok uniform socks attributed to Lidstrom with “XL+” sizing and “90 v-2” heat-pressed behind each label. The socks show use, with a team repair to each.
