Termed the world's best all-around player by Soviet national team coach Viktor Tikhonov, Bob Gainey brought many elements to the Montreal Canadiens during his 16-year NHL career. The burly left winger was a tenacious competitor, relentless checker, respected team leader and capable contributor on the offence. His presence on the Habs' roster helped the team win the Stanley Cup five times in the decade between 1976 and 1986 and led them to another victory in 1989. This is Gainey's road red CCM uniform from 1987-88 or 1988-89. The neck tagging is by Maska and the CCM logo shows up on the outer tail with Gainey's captain's "C" sewn on the chest. Wear is very obvious, with numerous stick marks, board burns and no less than 8 bullet-style repairs scattered throughout. As a bonus, 22 former members of the Montreal Canadiens have made their mark in bold and uniform black marker across the front. Rejean Houle, Elmer Lach, Guy Lafleur, Butch Bouchard, Dollard St. Laurent, Yvan Cournoyer, Guy Lapointe, Guy Carbonneau, Vinnie Damphousse and more...they are all here!
