Drafted 2nd overall behind Connor McDavid, Jack Eichel would be awarded the Hobey Baker Award as the top college hockey player in the NCAA for the 2014-15 season, registering 71 points in only 40 games played with the Boston University Terriers. Playing the first six (6) years of his National Hockey League career with the Buffalo Sabres before being traded to the Vegas Golden Knights, Eichel and the rest of his Vegas teammates would hoist Lord Stanley's Cup at the conclusion of the 2022-23 season with Jack registering 26 points in 22 games played in the postseason. One of the best players in the game today, offered here is this pair of gloves worn by Jack as a member of the Buffalo Sabres during the 2019-20 season, Buffalo's 50th anniversary campaign, as well as a signed game-issued stick from his 2015-16 rookie season. Starting with the gloves, Bauer Supreme 1S model gauntlets in Buffalo's navy and yellow colours, "Eichel" is embroidered into the outside of each wrist while "Bauer" is embroidered into the cuff of each as well. Measuring 14" in length and originally purchased right from the Sabres year end equipment sale, the gloves show just very light game-use with some rubbing over each palm, which is heaviest in the left one, and a couple of light marks over the outside of both hands and the fingers. For the stick, a Bauer Supreme 1S model twig with "Eichel" factory graphics over the upper shaft, the stick has never been tapped over either the handle/knob or blade and still displays a factory production sticker on the underside of the shaft that indicates that it was made during the 5th week of 2016. Tacky to the touch and overall remaining in excellent condition with some small marks and abrasions from handling throughout, Eichel has signed over the forehand side of the blade with a silver marker ink signature that displays without issue and has had an annotation reading "15-16 Rookie Season" added by him alongside it in matching ink that shows in the same condition. A D&A (Dave & Adams) hologram has been affixed to the underside of the lower shaft.
