Drafted 41st overall by the Florida Panthers at the 1993 NHL Entry Draft, Kevin Weekes would play a total of 348 games over the course of his National Hockey League career, suiting up for seven (7) different clubs over that time. A product of the Owen Sound Platters and Ottawa 67's in the Ontario Hockey League who was a key member of the Carolina Hurricanes' run to the 2002 Stanley Cup Finals, offered here is this photo-matched Hurricanes jersey worn by Weekes during the 2003-04 season, his last as a member of the Hurricanes. Made by CCM and sporting both size "60" and "Goalie Style" labels affixed to the inner collar, with the latter of the pair having had Weekes number "80" penned over it in black marker ink that has bled heavily, a CCM logo patch has been added over the reverse neckline and the NHL shield has been embroidered into the reverse hem. Decorated over the front of the jersey with a Hurricanes team crest that features both textured and embroidered details throughout, matching alternate logo patches have been placed atop of both shoulders. Accented over the sleeves and verso with Weekes number "80" in dual layer red-over-black tackle twill numerals, "Weekes" has been spelt out in matching style letters across the affixed matching nameplate at the top of the reverse. Signed by Weekes at the top of the "0" on the reverse with a black marker ink signature that displays without issue, the jersey shows overall excellent game-wear throughout via numerous pucks marks over dotted over the sleeves and body, a small unrepaired hole above the team crest on the front, pilling around the collar, lots of red post and crossbar paint transfers over the elbows and reverse and light thread fraying in areas on the interior, it is worth noting that some staining and discoloration is present on the lower reverse and fight strap. Displaying a Hurricanes/Custom Crafted team stamp inside the reverse hem that denotes the piece as an "Official Carolina Hurricanes 1st Set 2003-04 Season" example, the jersey is accompanied by a Hurricanes COA and is photo-matched with Getty Image #53081331 and #53081405 (January 21st, 2004 vs New Jersey) show matches to the puck marks over Weekes right shoulder and under the team crest as well as to the unrepaired hole at the top of the crest as well.
