This gold shiny knit alternate gamer by Gemini was worn by Brad Timmons during the 1998-99 WCHA season. Timmons, a native of Circle Pines, MN spent 2 seasons in the USHL prior to beginning his collegiate career in 1995. Brad played for two years with Northern Michigan University before transferring to the University of Minnesota where he played a total of 11 games during the 1998-99 season.
These Gemini made, Soccer Style Alternates were worn sparingly during just the 1998-99 season. They feature a fleece like interior lining and a shiny solid knit exterior, something unique to the design of this set of sweaters in the game worn hockey world. Another feature unique to these sweaters is the tribute to the All-Minnesota born roster for 1998-99. Sewn to the back, just beneath the player number, is the State of Minnesota patch that features the player’s hometown, Circle Pines, in white script. The game wear on this size XL sweater is solid and consists of stick and slash marks, board burns, un-repaired burn holes and heavy inner pilling. Shown above is a photo of teammate Ryan Trebil wearing this style alternate. An incredible exemplar of a true one of a kind 1-year style that is a must have for any serious Golden Gophers collector.
