HOFer Steve Yzerman’s awesome photo-matched 1998-99 Red Wings game-worn captain’s jersey has great game wear that includes team repairs! Stevie Y had back-to-back Stanley Cup titles to his credit when he wore this gamer as captain of the two-time reigning champions. The photo matches begin with February 1, 1999 Getty photos of Yzerman that show the big diagonal black mark through the Winged Wheel crest on the front and the black mark on the top of the 9 in the white twill “19” sewn on the right sleeve. A March 9, 1999 and a large number of 1999-2000 hockey cards also offer photo matches. Nike size 50 and NHL Center Ice tagging and a Made in Canada flag tag sit in the back of the neck along with an NHL Player screened patch. The Red Wings 1998-99 Authentic Game Jersey 2nd Set team patch is screened in red inside Steve’s custom-shortened hem, which has Nike and NHL logos embroidered on the right rear tail. There are two solid team repairs on the front tail and more game wear shows in black marks on the front and both sleeves, which have board burns. Comes with a Red Wings LOA.
Both team repairs are horizontal sewing fixes, the upper one is two inches long and thick with a fabric patch backing inside the jersey. There is a solid black mark on the rear right sleeve seam down from the shoulder yoke seam.
The big mark on the Red Wings crest also shows in a March 9, 1999 Yzerman Getty photo. A large number of 1999-2000 hockey cards (8) show photo matches that include the same mark on the crest as well as the black mark in the middle of the 1 on the right sleeve, the small diagonal mark below the 9 on the right sleeve, and black marks on the 9 on the left sleeve.
