This white knit gamer was worn by Sergei Kharin during the 1980’s while skating for the Soviet Wings. The Winnipeg Jets selected Kharin in the 12th round of the 1989 NHL Entry Draft. After spending nearly a decade playing for the Soviet Wings, this Moscow native made his NHL debut in 1990-91 with Winnipeg where he played for a lone season before embarking on a lengthy 11-year minor-pro career that spanned the ECHL, UHL, IHL and AHL.
The game wear on this sweater is solid and consists of stick and slash marks, board burns, board paint transfer, un-repaired burn holes and runs, inner pilling and plenty of team-sewn repair work on both sleeves. A nice example from this former member of the Winnipeg Jets.
