2000-01 Robbie Tallas Chicago Blackhawks Game Worn Jersey - "Chicago Blackhawks 75-year Anniversary" - Photo Match - Team Letter
Lot #405

This red air-knit gamer by Koho was worn by Robbie Tallas during the 2000-01 NHL season. Tallas began his career with the Boston Bruins in 1995-96. He spent 5 seasons as a member of the Bruins before joining the Chicago Blackhawks in 2000-01, which was his final NHL season. Tallas spent a couple more years in the Penguins organization playing for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Penguins before heading to Europe where he played a season in Finland and another in Austria.

Sewn to the right breast of this gamer is the Chicago Blackhawks 75-year anniversary patch. The game wear on this 1st set size 58 goalie cut sweater consists of stick and puck marks, a fight strap that has lost the battle to salt and rust, pilling and a couple of team-sewn repairs. Shown above is a beautiful photo match of Tallas wearing this exact jersey during his only season with Chicago and his last year in the league. Penned in black sharpie is the notation 1 on the reverse side of the NHL shield. Affixed to the inside is the official Chicago Blackhawks inventory number. This jersey will be accompanied by a Blackhawks team letter.
