Milestone photo-matched game-used skates worn by Super Mario Lemieux during his 50 goal 1996-97 campaign. The highlight of this prolific scoring run was the moment Lemieux notched his 600th NHL goal on Feb 4, 1997. An important career mark, Lemieux described his achievement: "Few milestones were more memorable than scoring my 600th career goal at home". These historic skates are marked on the bottom of each boot with the date of "2/4/97", the notation "600" and as Lemieux's number "66". The pair is photo-matched twice using marks on left boot, once to regular season action and again to the 1997 All Star game, which took place shortly before the milestone 600th goal. Lemieux also led the league in points this season! Comes complete with a letter of authenticity from Casey Samuelson of Penguins Chronicles and digital images of the photo-matching.
