This single-game Team Canada 2010 Olympics game-worn jersey is golden, identical in look to the ones worn by Sidney Crosby and company for the host nation's stirring final victory over the United States in Vancouver. Jonathan Toews's #16 Olympic gamer offered here is from the set worn by Team Canada for its round-robin game against Switzerland on February 18. The Nike logo and size "60" are printed in the back of the collar above a sewn-on IIHF tag. Nike's inventory bar code is heat-pressed into the inner rear hem. Inside the jersey, a small Hockey Canada logo patch is sewn behind the Canada crest. The Canadian Olympic Committee logo is embroidered on a patch sewn onto the right rear tail and a Vancouver 2010 patch is sewn onto the left sleeve but the real showpiece is that intricate design on the team crest. Spectacular! Game use shows in unrepaired holes and marks on both sleeves, small marks to the left of the No. 16 on the left shoulder, a couple of marks on the red twill on the left side of the "6" on the back as well as a black mark between the numbers and a few more black marks on the back to the right of the number. This historic uniform is conclusively photo-matched and we will be providing a high resolution photo of the match to the winning bidder. The photo-match consists of the long loose thread on the left shoulder's number 6 as well as additional matches to the half dozen plus marks on the left sleeve. Comes with a Hockey Canada letter of authenticity signed by president Bob Nicholson. A security feature is embedded into all Olympic jerseys by Hockey Canada. Hockey Canada doesn't disclose the process, only that if there is ever any question of authenticity by a holder of a Team Canada game-used jersey in the future, they can have Hockey Canada confirm upon supplying the physical jersey for inspection.
