For sale is a game worn Pittsburgh Penguins jersey from Stanley Cup Champion Randy Gilhen. This jersey was worn in the 1990-91 season. CCM Ultrafil, size 48. Features the 1990 Pittsburgh All-Star Game patch, which was also worn in the early part of the 90-91 season. The jersey shows nice visible wear with numerous stick marks on the front.
Originally obtained from Classic Auctions, this jersey has some unusual characteristics from game jerseys from this era -... namely, retail tagging in the neck and the removal of Century Sports embroidery on the lower hem. Nevertheless, the jersey has been video-matched by Penguins expert Casey Samuelson to game footage from the Penguins' first home game of the season on October 7, 1990 against the Devils. You can see various areas of the jersey that match the video, including the slanted angle of some of the numbers, thread irregularities, and such. Therefore, the jersey appears to have been worn in the preseason and through that first regular season game. The Penguins were known for doing unusual things with jerseys during this timeframe, so this was likely originally a retail jersey that was lettered for Gilhen when the team was in a pinch for blank pro stock jerseys.
