xcdude Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 Nice! The swifts are sized a lot differently. When I got my 1st from RCS I was surprised it was so small, so when I ordered the others, I ordered 58s and 60s... As for Photo matching, Finding one will be a huge challenge! May I suggest getting a DVD copy of the game or somehow trying to download if from The NBC Olympic website. They may still have the game up on line to watch... Or maybe just the medal round games are still available. I was watching one the other day! Happy Birthday! (in advance) I'm going to scour Getty images later. I'd rather have a physical photo than a DVD. I just need to do some research to figure out what games they wore white (IIRC it was against Canada, USA, and Slovakia).

I can capture a shot no problem on my PC. In fact they just sent me a email saying that they are delaying the ship date till the end of May. So I get a %20 discount on any "Believe" gear or team canada stuff on the CTV web site. wow %20 off $600 jersey that's numbered out of 2010 is STILL $480! big deal!

xcdude Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 I got the entire games on Blu-ray coming from CTV. I can capture a shot no problem on my PC. See here is the problem, to accurately photomatch you need distinctive wear to see. I'd rather search through photos than get it on a DVD because its a lot easier and how it should be done. Problem is this jersey was worn for one game (the 8-0 blowout to Canada), so finding a legit photomatch is impossible as there is one good mark that is very small on the jersey. Oh well.

But a TV broadcast, especially Blu-Ray will allow you to screen capture and print some pretty decent images if you find a match. The TV camera is bound to have different angles of certain plays, and heck, maybe you can even find the exact moment the mark was created by following your player and seeing wear he gets hit with a stick or puck.

I'm talking about one half inch mark on the bottom of a sleeve. I'm not scouring an entire game to look for an angle of that. I just wish it had more wear.

tb426 Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 It finally arrived! Some of you may be familiar with my journeys in acquiring this jersey. Well the quest (for this one) is over! Here is my 1991-92 Martin Brodeur rookie jersey. This style was worn during his first game March 26th 1992 vs Boston, a 4-2 win. The NHL decided during the 75th anniversary season that they would switch home and away jerseys after the all-star break (something we're familiar with full-time now), so the away red was worn at home during his first game. This is what I like to the the 1 1/2 patch jersey. It features the NHL 75th anny patch as well as the Devils 10th anny patch, a small one worn on the right hem. Surprised they didn't feature it a little more prominently. Sleeves numbers are definitely wrong, so is the 2 on back. Can't find the 9 yet...

That's cool to hear. I have a connection to the last name (not Chris himself), so that gave me the excuse to pick this up. I've dug the Wheeling logo for a while.

Burnaby Joe Sakic Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 I also received this today: It's what appears to be a team-issued Bruins jersey from the 2006-07 season that was among the ones given out at the MeiGray convention last year. For $40, how can you go wrong? The odd thing is, it has the EDGE style flag tag in the collar. The one that has the CCM logo on it. The jersey itself is clearly genuine but that's something I found strange. Maybe Jay can help me out here considering he has just about every jersey from the 2006-07 Avalanche. Mike...Aren't you being a little dramatic? I have at least half of them though! The more RBK jerseys I see the more confused I get as to the rhyme or reason behind their tagging. Any consistency would really help us here! All I can give you is some examples of tagging from my collection and wish you luck on figuring out what in the heck they're thinking. '07-'08 Laperriere Gamer 2009 Eastern Conference Edge 2.0 Game Issue Chris Lee Iowa Stars RBK 6100 Gamer Niklas Grossman Iowa Stars RBK 6100 Gamer I don't know what to tell you man, besides great pickup.

The first picture is the only one that shows there the only mark is, yet you cannot see it (because its probably too small) in that picture. There is just absolutely no wear on this jersey. Very frustrating indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IIHFjerseycollector Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 2010 IIHF div II tournament worn Vassili Titarenko home white Estonia jersey.. If this is the kind of stuff Tackla will be putting out in their future IIHF jerseys.. count me in on looking for the new stuff.. This jersey is heavvvy. It feels like the old nike versions. There are still sublimated logos and colors,but the underarms, the collars and the actual weight of the jersey really is excellent.... This one might be up for sale if someone likes it , but it wont be cheap... wait till you see what I have coming in a few weeks too.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 OUTSTANDING!! That is awesome. I've had my eye on an Estonia one lately actually. I love the lions on the front. My Kazakhstan jersey is the same as that one. It's not a traditional cut but it has a nice weight like you said. It has the mesh underneath the arms and along the lower back too right?
