2017-18 Gabriel Landeskog Home Stanley Cup Playoffs Set (KSE/Avalanche)

This is captain Gabriel Landeskog's Stanley Cup playoff sweater worn in round 1 of the 2018 Stanley Cup playoffs vs Nashville Predators.  This sweater was worn in the three home games in the 1st round at Pepsi Center.  

The Avalanche made a series of it and took the series to 6 games.. Landeskog had a fantastic series scoring 4 goals and adding 3 assists for 7 points.  He scored twice at home in games 3 and 4 in this sweater.  It was a memorable year for the Avalanche who made the playoffs on the last game of the season by beating the St Louis Blues at the Pepsi Center.  I am extremely excited to own the captain Landy's playoff sweater from this memorable season. 









2012-13 PA Parenteau Set 2 Road (MeiGray)

This is PA Parenteau's set 2 game worn sweater from the strike shortened 2012-13 season. PA had an excellent year with the Avalanche playing in all 48 contests and scoring 18 goals and adding 25 assists for 43 points. 

The sweater exhibits decent wear with a huge stick mark under the right arm and two team repairs.  Parenteau was a fan favorite during his time with the Avalanche..

2017-18 Tyson Barrie Set 2 Road (KSE Avalanche)

This is Tyson Barrie's set 2 road game worn sweater from the 2017-18 season.  This game worn sweater exhibits great wear with several team repairs on both arms and one on the right shoulder.  The sweater is photomatched to Tyson's franchise record setting 5 points in a game for an Avalanche defenseman vs the Vancouver Canucks in February 2018. Barrie scored 1 goal and added 4 assists in the game.  It was a memorable game as the Avalanche erased a 3 goal deficit to win the game in overtime..

2017-18 Nail Yakupov Global Series Set (KSE/Avalanche)

This is Nail Yakupov's Global Series home set that he wore against the Ottawa Senators on November 10th, 2017 in the NHL Global Series in Stockholm, Sweden.  This sweater is the new Adidas style on ice sweater.  This sweater is mostly pristine as would be expected from a one game worn sweater.  Yak opened the scoring in the game at 8:16 of the 1st period with a power play goal assisted by Alexander Kerfoot and Colin Wilson. The Avalanche lost the game to the Ottawa Senators by the score of 4-3 in overtime. I am very excited to add this sweater to my Avalanche game worn sweater collection.

2011-12 Gabriel Landeskog Set 1 Home Rookie Season (MeiGray)

This is Gabriel Landeskog's Set 1 home sweater from the 2011-12 season in which Landeskog was a rookie.. Landeskog wore this sweater in 13 home games from the beginning of the season, through November 30, 2011.  He did not score in this sweater, but he had 4 assists.  Landy had a stellar rookie season scoring 22 goals and 30 assists for 52 points.  The following season, Landeskog becomes the youngest captain in the history of the NHL at 19.9 years old.  This sweater exhibits great wear with several team repairs on both sleeves and heavy interior pilling.  Landeskog represents part of the young core of the Colorado Avalanche and I am extremely lucky to have added one of his rookie sweaters to my collection..

2015-16 Gabriel Landeskog Stadium Series (MeiGray/NHL)

This is Gabriel Landeskog's Stadium Series game worn jersey from the 2016 Coors Light Stadium Series game vs Detroit Red Wings.  The game was played on February 27th, 2016 at Coors Field in Denver, CO. Landeskog wore this sweater in period 2 of the game. The sweater exhibits light wear,, as to be expected from a sweater that was worn in only 1 period.  The players wore different sweaters in each of the 3 periods of the game and a 4th set was worn for warmups. Captain Landeskog factored in on 2 of the Colorado Avalanche goals with assists. The Red Wings defeated the Avalanche 5-3 on a very memorable night in Denver, Colorado.  I am glad to have acquired this amazing game worn sweater to remember this night by..

2005-06 Dan Hinote Set 1 Alternate (MeiGray)

This is Dan Hinote's Set 1 Alternate 3rd sweater for the 2005-06 season.  This is without a doubt one of my favorite Avalanche sweaters in my collection.. 2005-06 turned out to be Hinote's last season with the Avs before moving on to the St. Louis Blues.  He scored 5 goals and added 8 assists that year.  Hinote's best years were with the Colorado Avalanche.  He won the Stanley Cup with the team in 2000-01 season.  This sweater has very light use.. A couple of marks and a burn on the right shoulder which is photo matched.




Here is a photo of Hinote wearing the sweater in November of 2005 at the Pepsi Center
