This road white air-knit gamer by Reebok was worn by Sergei Kostitsyn during the 2007-08 NHL regular season and Stanley Cup Playoffs, during his rookie year. The Montreal Canadiens selected Kostitsyn in the 7th round of the 2005 NHL Entry Draft. This native of Belarus made his NHL debut with Montreal in 2007-08. Sergei spent 3 seasons with the Canadiens before playing three final NHL seasons with the Nashville Predators.
In 2013, Kostitsyn returned to Europe where he played for the next 7 seasons in the KHL.
The game wear on this 3rd set size 56 sweater consists of stick and slash marks, board burns, board paint transfer, un-repaired burn holes and inner pilling. Penned in the collar is a black sharpie “3” to indicate the set number. Shown above is a beautiful photo match of Kostitsyn wearing this exact jersey during the 2007-08 Stanley Cup Playoffs. Sewn to the inside hem is the official Montreal Canadiens game worn jersey tagging. A nice photo matched example hailing from Sergei’s rookie season.
