A product of the NCAA's Boston College Eagles who would help the program to a Frozen Four appearance in 2014, Mike Matheson would go on to be drafted 23rd overall by the Florida Panthers at the 2012 NHL Entry Draft. Having suited up for the likes of Florida, Pittsburgh and Montreal in his career thus far, Matheson has also worn the red and white of Team Canada on a few occasions, winning gold at the 2016 IIHF World Hockey Championships. Offered here, we present this Montreal Canadiens jersey worn by Matheson during the 2023-24 season in which he posted 62 points in a full 82 games played. Made by Adidas, a band displaying both "Made in Canada" and size "56" designations is affixed to the inner collar while a heat pressed "2" label to denote the jersey as a set 2 example is heat pressed on overtop of the screened on PrimeGreen designation below. Accented over the front and reverse necklines of the faux tie-neck style jersey with the crests of both the NHL and Adidas, the front has been decorated with Montreal's famed "CH" team crest in layered tackle twill while the distinguished alternate captain's "A" appears over the left breast. Also sporting a Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) sponsorship patch atop the right breast, the sleeves and verso have been styled with Matheson's number "8" in dual layer white-over-blue tackle twill numerals while "Matheson" is spelt out in single layer white twill letters across the affixed matching nameplate. Displaying light but concise game-wear, board burns exist over each sleeve while light coloured board paint transfers appear under the team crest and near the right cuff. Also showing fabric backed team repairs behind the board burns on the interior of both sleeves and pilling on the interior as well, the jersey has had a Canadiens team tag denoting it as a "2023-2024 Game-Worn Jersey" sewn inside the reverse hem and is accompanied by a matching Canadiens LOA. Regarding the photo-match, the jersey is matched with Getty Image #1966343486 (January 25th, 2024 vs New York) to the loose threads in the team crest as well as the mark under it.
