This home white air-knit gamer by CCM was worn by Nicklas Lidstrom during the 2002-03 NHL season. Lidstrom will be remembered as one of the finest defenseman of his generation and will surely take his place in the Hall of Fame upon retirement. To date this Swedish born star has captured 4 Stanley Cup titles.
Incredibly, Nick has won the James Norris Trophy as league’s best defenseman 3 years running and in 6 of the last 7 seasons total. In 2002 Lidstrom captured the Conn Smythe Trophy as playoff MVP. Through the end of 2007-08, Lidstrom is eyeing the 1000-point club with 212 goals and 938 points in 1252 games played to his credit. He has also chipped in another 149 playoff points for good measure. Lidstrom has represented his native Sweden in the 1991 Canada Cup, 2 World Cups and 3 Olympic Games. Nick is a 9-time 1st team NHL All Star and has played in 10 NHL All Star games.
Proudly sewn to the left breast of this sweater is the alternate Captain’s “A”. On the inside hem is the Detroit Red Wings official game worn jersey tagging. Game wear consists of stick marks, board burns, inner and outer pilling and no less than a handful of team-sewn repairs. Fine looking example of this future Hall of Famer. This jersey will be accompanied by a Red Wings team letter.
