Assisting on Mario Lemieux's first period goal, Wayne Gretzky and the Eastern Conference handily defeated the Western Conference at the 1997 NHL All-Star Game in San Jose, 11-7. Attended by over 17,000 fans, Mark Recchi would walk away with MVP honours. This 1997 NHL All-Star Game Eastern Conference captain's jersey has been signed by The Great One. Center Ice labeling along with a size “54” fly tag sits along the collar. Featuring a layered tackle twill NHL Eastern Conference team crest that is partially embroidered, "99" is sewn to the sleeves and verso, with a New York Rangers crest to the left shoulder, and 1997 All-Star Game crest to the right. Wayne has signed the second reverse "9" in white paint pen, with the signature standing out beautifully. We should also note a small stain to the lower front, and a few marks to the right sleeve. An LOA from Shawn Chaulk will accompany.
