Skating for only the Colorado Avalanche throughout his career along with representing the Czech Republic internationally, Milan Hejduk is a three-time All-Star and earned the Maurice “Rocket” Richard Trophy for his league-leading 50 goals in 2002-03. A Stanley Cup champion in 2001 and Olympic gold medalist in 1998, offered here is this photo-matched Avs third jersey donned by Hejduk during the 2006-07 season. Made by Reebok and sporting a lone size "56" label affixed to the inner collar of the classic tie-neck style garment, a Reebok logo patch has been added over the reverse neckline while an NHL shield emblem has been sewn over the reverse hem. Decorated over the front with “Colorado” going diagonally down the chest in tri-layer tackle twill numerals, matching primary logo patches are found resting on top of each shoulder. Having been accented over the sleeves and verso with Hejduk's number “23” in matching tri-layer tackle twill numerals, “Hejduk” is spelt out in single layer white twill letters arched across the affixed matching nameplate. Worn in ten (10) games throughout the season, the jersey exhibits just light game-wear via light stick marks over the lower front, lower reverse and through the "3" on the reverse plus board burns on the right sleeve and left shoulder, the jersey displays additional battle scars in the form of more board burns over the reverse hem and light red coloured paint transfers in the previously mentioned reverse number "3". With just light pilling found on the interior of the jersey, along with a MeiGray tag numbered "D07031", according to the company's population report the jersey is a "Third Set 1" specimen. Regarding the photo-match, the jersey has been matched with Getty Image #73628518 (March 17th, 2007 vs San Jose) to the long loose black thread through the "3" on the reverse plus the marks found within the numeral as well. An LOA will accompany the piece.
