Hailing from a season that saw him pot 49 goals and register 87 points one the way to the first Stanley Cup championship of his sure fire Hall of Fame career with the Conn Smythe and Maurice “Rocket” Richard Trophy’s added for good measure, up for grabs here are these signed Alexander Ovechkin gloves worn by him during the 2017-18 campaign. CCM Pro models in the Capitals red, white and navy colourway, CCM wordmark logos are embroidered over each cuff in navy and red with Ovi’s “GR8” identifiers sewn into the outside of each gauntlet as well. Additional embroidery is seen over each thumb, with the name of Ovi’s late brother featured on each glove as well as the image of an eye. Sporting light-to-moderate game-use via wear to the vinyl white graphics over the top of each hand, Ovi has added the number “6” to each palm (denoting pair number 6) in black ink with both palms showing rubbing from Alex’s stick, the heaviest of which is seen over the left glove and is coloured red from his handle/knob tape. Additionally, the soon to be goal scoring king has signed over each thumb with a black ink signature that displays without issue.
Regarding the aforementioned photo-match, the gloves are matched with Getty Image #894245334 (December 17th, 2017 vs Boston) to the wear of the vinyl white graphics over the top of each glove that run from the bottom of the wrist to the end of the ring finger. Of note it appears as though the number “6” of the right glove was retraced at some point due to it appearing to be a bit thicker than what is seen in the photo-match.
