Nice. I'm at about 200 gamers, broken down to about 150 NHL and 50 minors. Right around 60 Bruins gamers from 1985-86 to present, but some really nice other pieces from other teams, ranging from guys like Stamkos and Zetterberg to game worn stadium series and winter classic jerseys.

Very nice - only 5 Bruins for me - Oliwa, McCarthy, Nilan, Baumgartner & Shawn Thornton. 

 

At somewhere around 185 gamers total for me - only around 25 or so minors, rest are NHL.Don't have more than about 10 jerseys for any one team, but do have at least one for every franchise currently in the league. Much prefer the 80's & 90's jerseys to today's Reeboks. Have far more pre-2005 than post. Have a few guys that scored as well as fought - Shanahan, Owen Nolan, Jovanovski, but most of the players in my collection just used their stick to hook their opponent to let them know it was time to shed the mitts.

 

Do you collect other gameworn or game-used items as well? I collected game used sticks for many years as well - have about 275 currently, so basement is pretty full. Mostly goons there too, but some scorers and goalies in the mix like Yzerman, Shanahan, Belfour, Kolzig, etc. Also have about 60 or so pairs of gameworn gloves in the basement (50+ are goons) as well as 14 or so helmets (all but one a goon) and a few other misc. gameworn goon items (skates, pants, socks and a pair of photo-matched Bob Probert elbow pads).

Man, that Hordichuk Solar Bears jersey is so cool!


NHL teams could care less that you want a pair of brand new Warrior Luxe/Franchise custom thumb loop super custom digi toilet paper soft palm with double added reinforced custom Warrior logo backhand padding gloves or a 17 flex double kreps curve upside down toe hook stick from your fav player/team. -Bakes

Love the nilan twig

Searched for 5+ years trying to find one. Bought it online from a hockey card shop in Montreal a few years ago - used during his time in Montreal.

Amazing!  Thanks for taking the time to share this with us.  A few thoughts:

 

- The coin modification...I knew guys did various things like add extra fight straps, but that's a new one!

- Not an enforcer, but not scared to drop them, Iginla also has an added fight strap to the front of his jerseys (I know as recently as when he was with the Pens, I'm sure that hasn't changed since).

- What Stevie Y stick do you have?  I see some Louisville and Vic's in there...can't spot which one is his.

- I'm with you on the pre-Edge jerseys.  I love seeing the various materials, mods, etc that were used.  I think they go through more sets now where previously a jersey was worn in a good 20 games (two sets in a regular season), they show tons more wear and tear, and a lot more character. 

- I love the ultra-fil material (such as that Ducks jersey you posted), but I couldn't imagine wearing an ultra-fil jersey in a game in NHL arenas which are typically warmer.  I sometimes wear a Wings practice jersey from the late 90's with that material and I'm burning up.

- I didn't even realize Donald Brashear was in the NHL that early in the '90's.  He had a pretty long career...

 

Again, thanks for posting up, this is a thread I could never grow tired of.

Iginla didn't have an extra fight strap in Boston.

Campbell and Thornton both do/did.

The Yzerman is in the 4th (last) pic I posted of sticks, the Louisville TPS on the far left of that pic, that I've matched to his 89-90 season - it doesn't face the same way as the others in the pic! The other Louisville in that pic is also from the Wings, a late 80's Randy McKay.

My game used Inaugural season Todd Ewen Alternate Capt. Home jersey with FGW patch. The FGW Mickey ears patch was to honor the memory of Walt Disney Company's president Frank G. Wells who died in a helicopter accident on April 3, 1994. The Mighty Ducks only wore this patch for the final 5 games of their inaugural 1993-94 season. Ewen led the inaugural team with 272 PIM. He ranks sixth all-time in club history in penalty minutes with 650. Also, he was part of the first trade in Anaheim Ducks history when they acquired him from Montreal. Jersey is heavily game used with tons of repairs, stick marks, blood spots, etc etc.
