This road black air-knit gamer by Pro Player was worn by Darius Kasparaitis during the 1999-00 NHL season. Darius began his career on Long Island in 1992-93 where he and the Islanders made a strong playoff push during which time they defeated the 2-time defending Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins.
Darius quickly became a fan favorite, possessing a nasty edge to his game and getting known as one of the league’s most gifted agitators. In 863 NHL games he amassed 1379 PIMS. Following his time on the Island, he served with the Penguins for 6 seasons, the Avalanche and Rangers. He has represented Russia in the 1996 World Cup of Hockey and the Olympic games.
Sewn to the right breast of this gamer is the year 2000 NHL patch. Despite being predominantly black in color, this sweater still shows game use in the form of stick marks, board burns, board paint transfer, un-repaired burn holes and inner pilling.
