This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/24/2025
One of only seven men throughout a century of NHL hockey to eclipse the insurmountable 700-goal plateau and just the third in the league's history to surpass the mark of 800, Alexander Ovechkin has proven himself as one of the game’s all-time greatest, with HOF enshrinement guaranteed. Recently taking claim of the NHL's all-time goal scoring record previously held by Wayne Gretzky and having been the practical owner of the Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy that is awarded at seasons end to the man with the most goals during the season, Ovi has won it nine (9) times, including a run of four (4) straight between 2012-13 and 2015-16. A Stanley Cup champion with the Washington Capitals in 2018, a playoffs in which he also captured the Conn Smythe Trophy, Ovi has also secured a trio of Hart Memorial Trophy's and an Art Ross Trophy, offered here is this pair of gloves worn by Ovechkin during the 2018-19 season in which he potted another 51 goals. CCM made "Pro" model gauntlets in Washington's familiar red, white and blue colour way, CCM wordmark logos are embroidered over each cuff in navy and red with Ovi’s “GR8” identifiers sewn into the outside of each gauntlet as well. Additional embroidery is seen over each thumb, with the name of Ovi’s late brother featured on each glove as well as the image of an eye over the thumbs. Also having had the number "13" penned over both palms (denoting them as pair "13") in black marker ink, a repair/customization is seen to the left of the embroidered "CCM" logo on the left wrist, attaching it to the cuff so that it wouldn't move as much in that spot. Showing overall excellent game-use, rubbing is seen in each palm from Ovi's stick, the heaviest of which is seen over the left glove and is coloured red from his handle/knob tape. Also showing some various minor marks/scuffs/abrasions over the outside of each glove as well as a light stick mark over the cuff of the right wrist, some minor sweat staining is observed as well. Regarding the photo-matches, wear patterns on the outside of the left glove are photo-matched with Getty Image #1086000070 (January 20th, 2019 vs Chicago) while the same image also shows a match to the penned "13" on the palm of the right glove and to the small black thread extending in towards the "13" of the right palm as well.
