same0717 Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Did someone sew a Meigrey patch onto this jersey themselves? Can't imagine Crosby wearing a 48 with gear on: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Authentic-Sidney-Crosby-Pittsburgh-Penguins-2008-Winter-Classic-Mens-48-CCM-/151545754397?pt=U_Hockey_Fan_Shop&hash=item2348d4b31d Yeah certainly fake ... another one of the Meigrey "Groop" tags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazermcblazer Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Oh, I knew it was fake right off the bat, just have never seen the fake MeiGray patch either. Gave me a good laugh. I guess it's more common than I thought! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil91 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) Are you kidding me? Weird thing is he's selling other jerseys and some of those seem to be legit Edited January 15, 2015 by Devil91 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indoor living Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 A lot of the fakes seem to have "CCM" on the tags of Reebok jerseys. Isn't this a dead giving away that it's a fake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) Nope. Edges from 2007 to around 2010 had a size tag with CCM on it. They recently brought the CCM back, and you can see it on virtually all the new 2.0's made during the past year or so.

scarchelli Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Our new 2.0s from rcs dont have ccm on the size tag, so are they from more than a year ago, I assume? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Not necessarily. They may just be using some leftover tags from last year or before. To see when your jersey was made, look at the white sticker on the sleeve hang tag, and there's usually another one on the wash tag inside the jersey.

scarchelli Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) Ah yea, i meant to check that. Gotta wait now until next week because tts has it now.

jolmari Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Since this somewhat relates to the conversation, when did they change the NHL shield material? For the 13-14 season? Just got a jersey with the new material (is it Lextra or something like that, the same stuff that is on the football sleeves) and I like it!

Just got a jersey with the new material (is it Lextra or something like that, the same stuff that is on the football sleeves) and I like it! The first time I remember seeing them was in the 2010-11 season, when they appeared on the All-Star jerseys. Since then, most of the new jersey designs that appeared after that started featuring them. Today, even older designs that have been around for a while and formerly featured the old shield, have now started to use the Lextra shield. For example, around 75% of Kings players have the new shield on the first 2 sets of black jerseys this season. On the whites (set 1), only about 25% have the new shield. For now you'll probably see a mixture of the 2 shield types on game jerseys, but I think the old shield will be phased out very soon.

jolmari Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Ok thanks. Had no idea that they came already in the 10-11 season. Interesting that they are phasing it out so slowly. But then again, it's Reebok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey LAK74 (and others who may be able to help me out), I've recently started frequenting Ice Jerseys again after a brief hiatus and noticed the term Lextra come up more often. I can see some of the differences in the material and the Lextra shields certainly look a lot flatter. I am curious if that has a major effect on the thickness when sewn on the jersey. Would they be as pronounced as the Edge 1.0/early release 2.0's (à la tb426's photo)? Hope you all don't mind that I quoted a photo and a justifiable place for a quick question/answer/photo answer. Cheers all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 I'm not sure if it's what you are talking about, but the shield on my Devils Stadium Series jersey is paper thin in comparison to the others I have seen. Much better in the event your jersey gets pulled at the neck a little, no more getting stabbed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Much better in the event your jersey gets pulled at the neck a little, no more getting stabbed.Perhaps, but apparently this is what happens if you pull too hard on a Lextra shield!

scarchelli Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) I also noticed on my first authentic the other day that the nhl shield could stab me in the throat if I wasnt careful, haha.

(Kyle Clifford gamer.) mfitz, you indirectly answered my question, so it works out in the end haha. Thanks! I was under the impression that the Lextra shields (most prominent in the newer releases - Stadium Series, ASG) are fairly thin from photos here and there, but LAK74, your photo of Clifford's gamer seals the deal!

zilch Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 I have a chance to get a signed white starter Rangers jersey, but my question is the authintic quality of it. It has the double taged starter logo material seems to be correct, but one major concern is no fight strap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Can you post pictures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zilch Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Unfortunately I didn't take any left the event to get lunch. It doesn't look like it was one that had one then removed. Plus it still has tags. I would say from about 98. I'm probably going back to take some. It's $450 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 You're talking about the home jersey, not the white Liberty, right? And there were double S-star (without wordmark) logos and NHL shields on the hem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zilch Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Yep and yep. The S star and shield looked like a perfect match to my blues 98 starter. Same with the material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zilch Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 No captain C either couldn't remember if he was at that time. Obviously it's not game worn or issued Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Well, if it had those logos and it was made of the same nylon mesh, then it sounds like it was an authentic. Don't know why it wouldn't have a fight strap, though. Even a fake would have a fight strap. May as well use this opportunity to ask the Rangers fans here- I didn't think Gretzky was ever captain or even alternate captain, but I have seen photos (apparently game photos) of Gretzky wearing a "C" on his Rangers jersey. Does anyone know why or on what occasion(s) he would have worn a C? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zilch Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 It might have been just for his last game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
