Wayne Gretzky's original signature from the outset of his NHL career is featured along with the early autographs of fellow Hall of Famers Jari Kurri, Mark Messier, Paul Coffey and Glenn Anderson on this Glen Sather stick covered with autographs from members of the 1980-81 Edmonton Oilers. The Oilers head coach's original black tape remains intact on the blade of this stick signed early in the regular season. Edmonton went on to stun the Montreal Canadiens with a three-game sweep in their first-round playoff series, signaling the great things to come from the budding Oilers dynasty. Beginning with Ed Mio's red ink signature just beneath the ribbed white tape butt end, Hagman, Gretzky, Driscoll, Brackenbury, Siltanen, Kurri, Messier, Hicks, Semenko, MacDonald, Coffey, Lumley, Callighen, Weir, Anderson, Lowe, Fogolin, Lowe, Huddy, Hunter and Price have signed from left to right towards the bottom of the shaft. "Sather" is printed in black ink beneath the butt end and the stick was originally personalized, "To Terry, Best Wishes, Rick the Stick '80", by longtime Oilers dressing room attendant and hobbyist Rick Elaschuk.
