Description: 2008 Sidney Crosby Home Game Worn Pittsburgh Penguins Jersey Photo-Matched to 3/27/2008 game vs. the NY Islanders This is a very early – his third year in the NHL - game used jersey of Sidney Crosby. Early career Crosby jerseys are extremely difficult to find and are highly coveted. After he completed his second year in the league, on May 31, 2007, Sidney was named Captain of the Pittsburgh Penguins. As such, 2007-2008 is the first season he earned the right to wear the Captain “C” on the front of his jersey, which he has worn ever since. The patch on the right sleeve is for the Pittsburgh Semiquincentennial. The jersey has been conclusively photo matched to the March 27, 2008 game vs. the New York York Islanders and comes with a LOA from Resolution Photomatching. This game used jersey from the future Hall of Fame center is a black knit with team crest and captain's "C" on the front, "Crosby 87" on the back, and "87" onthe sleeves, all sewn-on in white, black, and gold tackle twill. The tag in tail reads "Cutting Edge Sports. Game Worn Jerseys Customized for the Pittsburgh Penguins, 2007-2008 Set 3. Head Equipment Manager, Dana Heinze." A lone "CCM 56" label resides in the collar and the fight strap is still intact. The jersey exhibits light wear. This was the only season that Pittsburgh Penguins jerseys have a Pittsburgh Semiquincentennial patch affixed to the right sleeve. As previously mentioned, the jersey has been conclusively photo matched to theMarch 27, 2008 game versus the New York Islanders at Mellon Arena inPittsburgh, PA. The LOA from Resolution Photomatching accompanies the jersey. Sidney Crosby's hockey awards and accomplishments are like an encyclopedia of greatness.
