Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction September 2024
One of the greatest in a long line of netminders to wear the famed bleu, blanc et rouge colours of the Montreal Canadiens, Patrick Roy would play 478 of his 1029 regular season games in the National Hockey League with the Habs, leading them to Stanley Cup championships in both 1986 and 1993, while also collecting a bevy of individual awards over that time as well. Earning his fourth (4th) William M. Jennings Trophy and third (3rd) Vezina Trophy on the eve of his second Stanley Cup championship, Roy would post a record of 36-22-8 during the year to go along with a .914 save percentage, 2.36 GAA and five (5) shutouts. Offered here, we present this photo-matched Montreal Canadiens jersey donned by Roy for a portion of the 1991-92 season. Won by our consignor in a charity golf tournament many moons ago, with the garment having been supplied by former Canadiens head coach, Mario Tremblay, the CCM made jersey displays washed out size "54" and Maska Ultrafil labels affixed to the inner collar while both the CCM and NHL shield emblems have been embroidered into the reverse hem. Decorated over the front of the jersey with Montreal's famed "CH" team crest in layered tackle twill, the NHL's 75th anniversary crests sits over the right breast. Displaying faint remains of a Roy signature over the left breast through a few marker ink dots, the sleeves and verso of the jersey have been styled with Roy's number "33" in dual layer blue-over-red tackle twill numerals while "Roy" has been spelt out in single layer blue twill letters across the affixed matching nameplate at the top of the reverse. Retaining its fight strap on the interior, which shows salting in the snaps, puck marks are found over the front, left shoulder and both sleeves, light pilling is present around the collar while greater amounts of it are found at the ends of both cuffs on the interior and exterior. Also showing additional wear via a pair of team repairs in the right sleeve, pilling on the interior and a small unrepaired cut over the lower front, the jersey also shows a good amount of spot stains and fabric snags throughout that are worth mentioning for accuracy. Regarding the photo-match, the jersey is matched with undated Getty Image #53132320, which shows a match to the puck mark under the left side of the team crest, the spacing of the layers in the team crest and the spacing of the layers making up the second "3" on the right sleeve.
