Inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2019, Guy Carbonneau was one of the NHL’s premiere defensive forwards throughout the 1980s and 1990s, with the Frank J. Selke Trophy awarded to the Sept-Îles native in 1988, 1989, and 1992. Serving as the captain of the Canadiens captain from 1989-90 through the 1993-94 NHL season, leading them to a Cup in 1993 to go along with the first one that he helped Montreal to in 1986, Guy would add a third Stanley Cup championship to his resume in 1999 as a member of the Dallas Stars. A veteran of 1318 National Hockey League contests over the course of 19-years in the league, thirteen (13) of which were with Montreal, offered here is this Canadiens jersey worn by Carbonneau in the era of the late-1980s. A CCM Ultrafil knit offering with a largely washed out Maska label affixed to the inner collar, the garment measures out to roughly a size "50" and displays a "small block" CCM logo embroidered into the reverse hem. Decorated over the front of the jersey with Montreal's famed "CH" team crest in layered tackle twill, the sleeves and verso have been styled with Carbonneau's number "21" in dual layer blue-over-red tackle twill numerals while "Carbonneau" is spelt out in single layer blue twill letters across the affixed matching nameplate at the top of the reverse. Likely dating to either the 1987-88 or 1988-89 seasons based on the position of the tag affixed to the inner collar, the style of CCM logo embroidered into the reverse hem and the fact that there is no letter added over the left breast (Carbonneau was named captain in 1989-90), th jersey has been signed by Carbonneau over the left breast with a blue marker ink signature that displays well despite some fading from age. Displaying its original fight strap on the interior as well as good pilling, the jersey exhibits excellent game-wear via numerous team repairs totalling approximately twenty-five (25) between the two sleeves and lower front plus coloured board paint transfers and stick marks over the front, reverse and both sleeves. Additionally, there are board burns over both sleeves as well and a couple of small unrepaired holes over the left forearm.
