Hockey life was grand and promising for the Turgeon family in the summer of 1987. A little over a month after Pierre Turgeon was chosen first overall by Buffalo in the NHL entry draft, his older brother Sylvain was at Team Canada's training camp for the upcoming Canada Cup. Sylvain's bid to make the team came to a sudden end after he suffered a broken arm when he was whacked by Philadelphia goalie Ron Hextall's stick during an intra-squad scrimmage in St. John's, Newfoundland. Sylvain's red #61 Team Canada jersey displays its fair share of use despite its obviously brief period of wear, including stick marks at the left cuff and through the white vinyl half maple leaf on the left sleeve, a slashing stick mark through the middle of the white vinyl half maple leaf on the front, and horizontal marks through the bottom of the "1" in the white twill #61 sewn on the back. Size "50" is handwritten in faint ballpoint on the Maska fly tag in the neck and the fight strap is intact.
