This home white knit gamer by Maska was worn by future Hall of Famer Phil Housley during the 1983-84 NHL season, his second in the league. Housley was the 6th overall pick in the 1982 NHL entry draft. Phil was a member of the all-rookie team in 1983, a 2nd team NHL All Star in 1992 and has appeared in 7 NHL All Star games. He is among the highest scoring defenseman in the history of the NHL.
His 21 year career produced totals that are now in the books at 338 goals, 894 assists and 1232 points. His assist toals place him top 20 on the NHL’s all-time list and his point total rank him as one of the top 40 highest scoring players in league history. His 1232 point total also rank him as the highest scoring U.S. born player in NHL history.
The game use on this 2nd year sweater is noticeably light. There are some stick marks to the body and sleeves, a touch of board paint transfer and inner pilling. A true hard to come by vintage representation of this gifted Hall of Famer to be.
