Fittingly, Ray Bourque would score the game winning goal in front of the Bruins hopeful, as the 1996 NHL All-Star Game was held at the Fleet Center with over 17,000 witnessing the Eastern Conference slip past the Western, with hometown hero Bourque also named as the contest’s MVP. This Eastern Conference jersey was worn by goaltender Dominik Hasek, and it’s been signed. Maska Ultrafil and Center Ice labels along with a size 56 fly tag sit affixed to the collar, with embroidered NHL and CCM crests on the back bottom hem. Featuring a partially embroidered twill “Eastern” team crest, the sweater has been accented with double-twill numbers with the name on verso sewn directly onto the garment. The important 1996 NHL All-Star Game patch rests over the right shoulder, while a Sabres team crest resides over the left. A Sports Registry label has been heat-pressed onto the interior near the fight strap, and it indicates that this was one of five jerseys worn for either the official photo shoot, pre-game warm-up or in one of the three periods. Hasek has also added an attractive and flowing black marker signature to the interior on the reverse side of the team crest, and it displays well. Discernible game-wear includes just a few faint marks on the right sleeve, along with some spot staining on the reverse, below and to the left of the numbers. An LOA from the NHLPA will accompany.
