DiscoStu Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 (edited) This one arrived today. The Toledo Walleye are selling off some old gamers, and this is my first ECHL jersey. Kristoff Kontos joined the Walleye at the end of the season after his overage season with the Saginaw Spirit ended last year. I have been a season ticket holder of Saginaw since the beginning. I have been looking for a Walleye jersey featuring one of our Spirit players, and I was happy to find this one which is the Walleye 3rd jersey that features the "Real Fish" crest. This one is a size 56 6100 cut with a shortened fight strap. Kontos is not a fighter, so I am thinking that he had to use this jersey as it was one of the only ones available at the end of the year. The strap was probably shortened because he probably needed a 52 or 54 not a 56. This leads me to believe that he actually wore this one and it wasn't simply prepped for him to wear, although I have not yet found a picture of him wearing it. It shows wear as it is very likely that #28 had been put into service during the season for another player, as minor league guys come and go. It would have been a bad idea to send a Quesalupa in the box along with the jersey, but right now they are only available in Toledo as apparently it is a test market for Taco Bell. Needless to say, I fricken want one. Come on Toledo!!! Edited March 11, 2015 by DiscoStu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiggoalie Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Nice Real-Fish jersey. I have one on the way that I should be able to post soon. Mine has the assistant captains A patch, and it's the most rushed sew-job I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob77ta Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) 1999-2000 Keith Primeau Road Jersey. Size 58. Joe Tomon LOA. This orange road jersey was worn by Primeau after his arrival to Philadelphia on 1/23/2000. The interesting thing about this one is the absence of the 2000 patch that was worn by the all of the teams in the NHL for the 99-00 season. Through some research/homework (you never stop learning things it seems), I was able to uncover that not all of the jerseys in the Flyers first road set had the 2000 patches. This one may be an example of this as there appears to be no sign of the patch having been removed. It may have been one of the first jerseys worn by Primeau after his arrival to the team. Another possibility is that it was worn as a backup for the remainder of the 99-00 season and into the 00-01 pre-season. It could have even been kept as a backup for the 2000-01 season even though the Flyers had switched to Koho branded jerseys on the road orange and alternate blacks in the 2000-01 season. The LOA identifies the jersey as being worn in 2000-01 because there is no 2000 patch but after speaking in length with Milt Byron, this may not be the case as stated above On to the jersey. The wear is on the lighter side with the front of the jersey showing a 5" faded slash mark on the lower right side and a few faded black markings on the lower front of the jersey. The right sleeve has about 4 black markings in the white area of the sleeve, 2 light board burns in the elbow area, and blood stains next to the sleeve #2. The left sleeve has approximately 5 black markings on the white part of the sleeve, a burn to the sleeve #2, 5 board burns in the black cuff area, 2 board burns in the elbow area, and one 3" burn in the elbow area that leads to two 1/2" un-repaired board burn holes. The rear of the jersey exhibits two black markings and a Primeau's signature on the rear #5. The inside of the jersey has 25 penned on the CCM neck tagging and shows light salting to the fight strap buttons. i I've been searching since 2007 for an orange Primeau road, basically since I got involved in this hobby. A fellow collector once told me, "everything pops up eventually". He was right! Edited March 13, 2015 by rob77ta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galvinwong Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 90s Nike replica. Came from a vintage clothing seller. Unknown signature, sleeves really short, came with a strange smell and was in obvious need of a wash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbyp6565 Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Does that explain the shortened sleeves as well? Doesn't look like they've been shortened to me - if trying to emulate how Domi had his sleeves customized, the end of the sleeves wouldn't have reached the top of the first white stripe in that picture (and Domi had his "pinched" in as well to make them tighter) - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Just in from EPS. Loved the 2000 ASG jerseys, working on a Devils team set. The World Team ones were fun with the reversed customization on back (numbers up top, name on bottom). Also cool in that Elias wore #29 instead of his customary #26, which was worn in that game by Martin Rucinsky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a Gomez I bought back in 2000, but I traded it because I am no longer the size I was 15 years ago. If you saw a size 56 Gomez or blank, I would be much obliged.
