Saku Koivu wore this Habs captain’s jersey when he made his heroic and triumphant return from battling cancer late in the 2001-02 season. The plucky Finnish center was welcomed back by an emotional ovation from the Molson Centre crowd when he made his season debut on April 9th in a 4-3 win over Ottawa in Montreal’s last home game of the regular season. Saku played six more playoff games at home against Boston and Carolina, tying for the team lead with 10 points overall. Despite its obviously limited use, this Koivu game-worn jersey with size 54 tagging in the neck displays puck and stick marks on the front and both sleeves. Included is the original Classic Auctions LOA detailing the jersey’s provenance.
