This road blue air-knit gamer by Koho was worn by Tom Koivisto during the 2002-03 NHL pre-season. The St. Louis Blues selected Koivisto in the 8th round of the 2002 NHL Entry Draft. Following 10 seasons in his native Finland, Koivisto succumbed to the call of the NHL and made his debut in 2002-03 with the Blues. Two years later, this Finnish defenseman was back in Europe where he played for the next 8 years before announcing his retirement in 2012 after a 20-year professional career.

Light but obvious game wear exists on this pre-season set size 54 sweater. Shown above is a beautiful photo match of Koivisto wearing this exact jersey during the 2002-03 pre-season. Sewn to the inside hem is the official NHL game worn jersey tagging. A nice photo matched offering from this Finnish rearguard’s NHL beginning.
