Description: This hard to find 3 patch Red Wings jersey was worn by Jimmy Howard in the second half of the 2016-17 season. The Gordie Howe “9” memorial patch adorns the left chest area, the Mr. I memorial patch sits on the left shoulder, an the NHL Centennial patch is on the right sleeve. The jersey shows nice wear, with a nice repair on the front belly, and good puck marks throughout the front. The repair, the puck mark on the crest, the mark below the crest, the mark on the right shoulder, and the one on the right sleeve all match up nicely to photos of Howard wearing the jersey in action. The loose threading on the bottom left corner of the 9 patch is also photo matched.
