Although it would be great to have a Northstars crested jersey, the price is way too steep. Especially for a non-game style. I appreciate the help and the money saved! Good choice. Back when I dabbled in other teams, I bought one of those for $150. When I gave up other teams, I sold it for $150. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudrock512 Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 So, this might be a bit obsessive, but let me know if this would bother you or not. I bought a KOHO Kings jersey with the thoughts of making it a Luc Robitaille jersey. He used this style in 2000-01 before playing for the Red Wings in 2001-02. Well, when I received the jersey, it turned out it was a team issued jersey with the hang tag still on it. The issue is, it still have the born on date tag on it, and it was made on July 26, 2001. So this would have been after Luc played for the them and it would make the jersey a 2001-02 season jersey. I could always do a Ziggy Pallfy Team Issued jersey, or Potvin. Just curious if this is taking it to another level to craziness. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hockey Bob Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 I guess I am the opposite. I really DO want my stuff to look like a gamer but the impossible details aren't worth sweating. It's NOT a gamer, In the end, when I sell it - it will still be either "just a team issue" or a retail jersey. I wonder, How much value does having a 100% accurate patch or an accurate born on hang tag really add? I love that we all geek out over the small details but I imaging those that collect gamers are sitting back and scoffing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn’t bother me, but there were a few minor tagging differences between the 2 seasons. Just curious, does your jersey have the single Made in Canada flag/size tag, or separate small size tag and MiC tags? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJM4 Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 I have to come clean and admit that it did sorta bother me having a born on tag that was 2 years older than a jersey I was trying to replicate. It is a Sabres with 95' born on tag and I had the SC100 patch on it. Once I found an original Sabres 25th patch I stripped the SC100 off to make it accurate to the born on tag. But I like @jsh139 idea on the subject best in hindsight lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 1 hour ago, spudrock512 said: Just the single tag. Thanks. That proves those flag tags were manufactured prior to 2001/02, but the Kings might not have used those until later in the 2001/02 season. What’s interesting to me is that some of the 2000/01 Kohos had Koho tags on the back collar, but a CCM tag on the inside, like on this Robitaille: https://www.classicauctions.net/mobile/LotDetail.aspx?inventoryid=108175 Also this alternate: https://www.classicauctions.net/mobile/LotDetail.aspx?inventoryid=107153 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, between the tagging difference and the born on date, I know it sounds a little picky, but I think I am going to go the route of the Palffy 01/02 jersey. At least I am not getting to the point of only buying jerseys the player actually wore...but I'm close. Hey LAK74 - these numbers were stacked ion 01/02 right?

Those twin patches on the 2001/02’s look pretty cool anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJM4 Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Couple questions: did the 97-98 LA Kings jerseys have nameplates or not? And what is the Starter material called? It's not airknit, it's almost like ultrafil but softer. Does it have a name? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought flo-knit is like the pro player, which is somewhat similar to airknit. This is like soft and spongy ultrafil like material.

jsh139 Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Flo-Knit is Nike/SP material. Maybe it’s called StarKnit? I’ve seen that thrown around on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's sorta what I had in mind. We'll see if someone can confirm. Per my other question, on nhluniforms it doesn't look like the kings use nameplates in 97-98... or maybe ever since I know my 2003 doesn't use a nameplate either.

jsh139 Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Doesn’t look like they used nameplates in 1997-98. Also, the material looks more like air knit (or star knit, whatever) than ultrafil. https://www.gamewornauctions.net/products/1997_98_Jan_Vopat_Los_Angeles_Kings_Game_Worn_Jersey_Photo_Match-13062-0.html I’ll let @LAK74 confirm, tho.
