Having had the sleeves shortened to Havlat's liking and displaying the original fight strap as well as a Wild team tag denoting the jersey has being a "Game Worn Jersey - 2009-2010 Set #1" offering on the interior, the jersey displays with just light game-wear including light stick marks over both sleeves and lower front, light red board paint transfers through the numbers of the right sleeve, board burns over the left shoulder and left sleeve and finally a team repair directly above the "4" on the right sleeve, there is also pilling throughout the interior as well.
