This white air-knit gamer by Reebok was worn by Miikka Kiprusoff during the 2006-07 NHL season. Kiprusoff joined the Calgary Flames after spending several seasons with the San Jose Sharks where he began his career. Kiprusoff’s star began to shine in Calgary. He took over as the #1 goalie in 2004 and hasn’t looked back. That season Miikka led the Flames to their first playoff appearance since the mid 1990’s as well as their first Stanley Cup Finals appearnance since 1989.
He led the NHL in GAA (1.69) and save percentage (.933) that season. He also played in all 26 playoff contests posting a miniscule 1.85 GAA with 5 shutouts. The next season, 2005-06, saw Kiprusoff record 10 shutouts and 42 Wins. That season Miikka captured the Vezina Trophy as the NHL’s best goalie as well as the Jennings Trophy for fewest goals allowed. He was voted 1st team NHL All Star in 2006 and played in the NHL All Star game the following year. Miikka has also represented his native Finland in the Olympics and the World Cup of Hockey.
Fine game use exists on this size 58 goalie cut sweater. There are stick and puck marks, goal-post-paint transfer, heavy pilling around the neck and sleeves from Miikka’s goalie equipment as well as a significant team-sewn repair on the belly. Here is a spectacular gamer worn by one of the NHL’s finest goalies during an All Star season. Sewn to the inside hem is the official NHL game worn jersey tagging. This jersey will be accompanied by a Flames team letter.
