This road green heavy mesh gamer by HiLi was worn by Jeff Loder during the 1997-98 ECHL season. Loder played hockey for about a decade in various leagues including the QMJHL, ECHL, IHL, AHL and UHL. He spent two seasons with the Roanoke Express, 1996-97 and 1997-98. The Roanoke Express existed for a mere decade between 1993-94 and 2003-04.

Proudly sewn to the left breast of this gamer is the alternate Captain’s “A”. Sewn to the right breast is the sponsorship patch. A unique customization exists on the right sleeve, the sleeve having been bunched and a thick black skate lace sewn through and tightly tied to provide a more snug fit. A black sharpie autograph can be found on the back player number. The game wear on this sweater is solid and consists of stick and slash marks, numerous board burns, board paint transfer, un-repaired burn holes, inner pilling and some team-sewn repair work on the body and sleeves. A terrific well-worn 1990’s Roanoke example that sports a letter of honor.
