1993-94 (Red Needed)
Jason Miller 1993-94 Albany River Rats CCM Ultrafil White Home #27 sz 52 with captains’ “C”. Numbers and letters are fully sewn on (Red on Black), with name sewn on a white nameplate sewn on the jersey. NJ Devil logo patches on each shoulder were ripped off shoulders, with considerable thread left, and the tip of the arrow on the left shoulder. CCM embroidered in all-black sequence, with orange/black NHL (National Hockey League) shield embroidered next to it. The crest is screened on, with a once-over with thread of the color below it on the outline of the face, jersey, stick, and teal zig-zag. There was at least one change of the crest, as it appears there was a NJ Devils logo on the front from the small holes around the area. It is unclear if this was ever worn in a NJ Devils game (either pre-season or regular season). There are no obvious signs of a nameplate change. The left sleeve has great filth near the cuff, and lots of stick marks near the number. There is a team repair about an inch and one half starting at the end of the sleeve, and rising up the seam. There is a repair the size of a dime on the lower red band, below the elbow. It is fortified with what appears to be red number material, similar to what I have seen on Utica Devils jerseys. There is a deep board burn starting at the top of the “7”, continuing through the diagonal. It has ripped the sleeve at one point. The right sleeve also has the same outstanding filth, but no major holes and no repairs at all. There is considerable interior pilling at the armpit and chest areas. There are also four interesting red marks on the inside of the jersey, near the shoulder seam. They look like board marks, but are in the inside. ACQ: DTG, 10/00
1994-95 (Set 1 Red/White, Set 2 Red Needed)
Eric Bertrand 1994-95 Albany River Rats CCM Ultrafil White Home #18 sz 54 Most likely Game Issued, even though the Team LOA stated it is game worn. Bert suited in warm-ups a few times, but never got any game action. Crest is fully embroidered, Numbers and letters are fully sewn on (Red on Black), with name sewn on a white nameplate sewn on the jersey. NJ Devil embroidered logo patches on each shoulder. There appear to be a few faint marks on the jersey, including some grime near the end of the sleeve, and some red paint transfer near the back left shoulder. No clear evidence of a nameplate change, but it is not Custom Crafted, like the jerseys from the first year and beginning of the season were. Some of it could be fan error as well, but people who have worn it are too cheap to buy stadium food. CCM embroidered in all-black sequence. Fight strap sewn in shows some surprising pink staining. Black numbers show great fraying. Glue from born on tag is still visible, and has stuck to the back inside of the jersey. ACQ: Team, 3/97
1995-96 (White needed)
Curt Regnier 1995-95 Albany River Rats AHL CCM K sz54 #23. Light overall use, as Curt spent much of the year in the ECHL. Some good puck and stick marks on the sleeves. Embroidered CCM and AHL patch sewn on rear hem. ACQ: Team 3/97
