  1. I think the emphasis should be on 'WAS' and not 'the'...odd they announced the demise, yet still here Ghost town 👻🤷‍♂️
  2. Please don't swear...also, don't forget potential of recycled jersey(s)
  3. amazing revival...don't know too many folks'll see this 😶
  4. $180CAD ($145US) and there's your Starter mesh https://www.ebay.com/itm/224451463794?hash=item3442598a72:g:75gAAOSwT21gkuZe
  5. Yeah, similar to Pens, when the team switched to the new style, CCM/Maska was still putting out older style/leftover materials and jersey came with the CCM tag. Sometimes at a price, but I've had good success tracking down material through replicas/retail jerseys. Granted Starter mesh might be a tougher find, but snag an authentic size 46 at $200, sacrifice to the jersey gods, sell off the remaining material and crests/fight strap to recoup and Bob's your uncle
  6. It's one of the main reasons there are soooo many '92 Penguins done wrong '92 Pens win the cup - all gamers have 'Ultrafil' tags and the font Pens rocked late 80s/early 90s '93 they switch to the dirty pigeon, BUT still market the crap out of the old design **with newer 'CCM' collar tags, and **newer Pens font worn on '93 jerseys Soooo many Lemieux's, Jagr's....Penguins players on '92 jerseys with wrong neck tag and '93 font
  7. It'll all be outlined in '94-04...just curious how much peeps care. Thx for your input
  8. A few things happened 1 - '89-90, from small block to big block without NHL logo, NHL logo added by end of season 2 - Center Ice Collection starts marketing, '91 jerseys have 'Ultrafil' or 'Air-Knit' tagging only (Rangers are only team with 'CCM' tagging (and MIC, MIUS, Assembled in...but whole other ballgame) and still mesh) 3 - Numbering tag appears circa end of '91, new jerseys for '91-92 have 'em 4 - Circa end of '93, new 'CCM' tags started replacing the previous 'Ultrafil' or 'Air-Knit' 5 - Circa '95 size tags only in collar (for *some* teams) and those have a Maska hip tag So, for example, we see this collar and '93 patch on a Roy, right? Simply by looking at the size tag we know it's '95 on and there's a hip tag without even looking
  9. Rare patch, great jersey Simply curious 'cause the last time I asked I was met with some resistance - given how some collectors are "meh", while others collectors are all like "!$%*&, the 'A' on the jersey needs to be exactly 3" right of the logo and 1.35" down from shoulder seam"... ...does it bug anyone that this jersey (collar tagging + inside hip tag) is circa '95, but it has a '93 cup anny patch affixed?
  10. Why do you get the fight strap, but not the neck tags? The Rangers had made in Canada w quality straps, Assembled in Canada with US & Canada components, and made in US, and the latter two had crappier stocko FS I digress, but we've all seen jerseys with FS cut out and replaced...are guys ok with getting a cheap replacement since no one sees it? Why does it automatically turn to "bashing the fact"? But see, this kinda illustrates the point - we don't see the hip tag whatsoever, but we see the collar tag all the time, whether in pics or on display 98% of the time we see 'em. I was just curious if guys cares or not
