Brad McCrimmon 1985-1986 home jersey "31" Lindbergh patch
Size 50
Eagle Mesh Regular season /playoff set Iceviolence LOA
|
This jersey was worn by the late “Beast” (RIP) during the 1985-86 season. The season would be dedicated to the young Flyers goaltender, Pelle Lindbergh, who died tragically in a car accident on 11/11/85. The Flyers wore a “31” patch on their left shoulder for the remainder of the season. The jersey features nice wear with the front exhibiting a few slash marks to the crest, a small stain under the crest, an un-repaired hole in the black hem area, and a few black markings on the bottom of the front. The right arm shows a couple of board burns to the black cuff area, a few small burns in the orange area of the sleeve, black and red markings to the arm “0” and a hemmed cuff. The left sleeve has the aforementioned “31” patch, a small un-repaired hole under the arm “0”, two small burns in the orange area of the sleeve, a large board burn in the black cuff area, and hemmed cuff. The rear of the jersey has decent wear as well with some red dasher markings under the rear “0” and an un-repaired hole and some burns to the right of the embroidered “Eagle” branding. Inside, the small 50 size tag remains in the neck area. There is light pilling on the inside of each arm. The fight strap shows some salting and has been sewn through the rear “0” and reinforced with thick white thread. This jersey may have been worn toward the end of the season and into the playoffs. I have a possible video match from Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals vs the NY Rangers to the placement of the “31” over the left sleeve numbers. Nonetheless, this is a fantastic example of the 1985-86 Pelle memorial jerseys worn in front of the Flyers faithful on Pattison Ave.

Bob dailey 1980-1982 road jersey
Size XL
Goodman's Mesh/Knit Regular Season Set
|
This jersey was worn by “The Count” during the 80-81 and early 81-82 seasons. The jersey would have had the white hem stripe when worn in 80-81 but the jerseys were recycled and the white mesh stripe was removed to make the jerseys compatible with the Cooperall pants. This altered set was worn on the road until the Sandow set came in. Most of these that made it into the hobby are extremely short jerseys but this one still has a good amount of length due to Dailey being huge! The front of the jersey exhibits some washed out black marks and the unique Flyers rounded crest which has a few stick/slash marks on it. The right sleeve has a couple of black marks, two team loop-style repairs, a un-repaired 1/2” hole, and numerous board burns and fabric pulls in the knit cuff area. These jerseys were primarily mesh but the cuffs were a heavy knit material. The left sleeve shows more black markings, 4 team repairs, an un-repaired board burn hole, and other light burns and pulls. The rear has nice even use with “Dailey” sewn in white twill on a matching mesh nameplate. Inside, the Goodman’s tag can be found designating the jersey as a size XL. There is a good amount of pilling on the inside of each arm and shoulder area. The original fight strap remains sewn directly through the rear number 2. An awesome and quite rare Bob “The Count” Dailey road gamer with nice use is always a welcomed addition!

Size 48 Penned on neck tagging
CCM Mesh Regular Season Set |
Fight strap sewn through rear number 5 with a few stick/puck marks on the sleeves and front of the jersey. Inside has light pilling and sweat stains on each shoulder.

The game winning goal would force a Game 7 back in Edmonton. It was reportedly one of the loudest moments ever at the Spectrum and voted the 8th greatest moment in Philadelphia Flyers history, according to fan voting. J.J. played 77 games that year scoring 6 goals and adding 16 assists for 22 points.

The front of the jersey exhibits a beautiful embroidered Flyers crest, black markings, un-repaired holes, heavy pilling on the lower front hem, 2” repair on the lower right side, another 2” repair on the lower middle front, and a 7” repair from under the crest to the orange stripe on the lower left, and a 2” repair to the upper seam of the orange stripe. The left arm exhibits markings on the upper rear shoulder area, black marks, pilling, a 1” black mark on the sleeve number 6, an un-repaired hole near the elbow, board burns and pilling on the cuff area, and hastily shortened sleeve end. The right arm has more of that familiar pilling, brownish stains near the shoulder and the elbow area, a large black mark on the shoulder, a small slice in the elbow area, and 1” scrape in the shortened cuff area. The rear shows nice even wear with the “Dupont” nameplate still in tact with a nice tear just over the N. The rear six shows it’s age with some nice thread wear and puckering from washes and age. There is another 2.5” repair on the lower right side just above the orange stripe. Towards the bottom left of the jersey a nice 3” burn/scrape can be found in the orange stripe area as well as some red dasher paint on the lower hem. The lower right hem has another 1” red dasher mark, bluish/green stain and pilling all along the rear hem. The inside of the jersey features a small L size tag in the neck area. Pilling can be found throughout the inside of the jersey and is heaviest in the elbow and lower arm area on each sleeve. There is also some bluish stains under each arm presumably from Dupont’s protective equipment. A rare gem from the “Broad Street Bullies” era that truly must be seen to be fully appreciated.
Photo-match 4/13/75
Look at the inner top black portion of the 6 and see it slopes down on the left side. Then under the bottom cut out of the 6 there is a crease in the orange twill from washings. Also, if you zoom in on the b&w picture below there is a crease above the cut out on the left side in the orange twill which can be seen.
This photo was taken on April 13, 1975, during game one of the 1st round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs vs. the Toronto Maple Leafs.

This jersey was worn by “Moose” sometime in 1999-2000 and was later auctioned off. This size 54 Bauer Ultrafil jersey features light event/game use with the front showing some staining and a slash mark on the Flyers crest. “Alummi” is proudly sewn on under the crest in black, orange, and white twill.

The left sleeve shows the same sort of use with a couple of markings. The rear of the jersey has some staining near the Bauer hem tagging, some black marks through the nameplate letters, and the rear number 6 has ten signatures from other alumni including Bob Dailey and Reggie Leach! Inside, a Bauer size 54 tag is in the neck area and the original fight strap remains. Some light pilling near the rear hem most likely from the fight strap. An awesome style from a Flyers legend that IMO should have been adopted by the Flyers as an alternate jersey in the 1990’s.

 Worn during the 99-00 pre-season. Minimal wear with light stick and puck marks. Some board paint on the sleeves. I determined this jersey to be from a pre-season set as the 2000 patch was never applied to the jersey. It also appears that there was an alternate captain's "A" that has been removed.

Photo-matched to the black mark on the left sleeve number 5. Fun fact about Kerry Huffman: On June 30, 1992, he was involved in the blockbuster trade involving 1991's first overall pick Eric Lindros. The deal saw Huffman traded from Philadelphia to the Quebec Nordiques, along with Peter Forsberg, Mike Ricci, Ron Hextall, Chris Simon, Steve Duchesne, a first-round pick in the 1993 and 1994 Drafts and $15,000,000 for Lindros. |

He played in an additional 9 playoff games that year on the way to the Stanley Cup Finals. This jersey may have been worn on the road in Edmonton for Game 3 of the SCF’s on 5/25/85 and Game 5 on 5/30/85. Looking for any photos from those two games to see if it’s the same jersey.

John Stevens 1986-1987 Home Jersey
Size 50
CCM Mesh Regular Season Set
|
This jersey was worn by John Stevens during the 1986-87 season. He was called up for 6 games that year to fill in on defense. Two of those six games were at the Spectrum. This jersey was worn on 1/29/87 in a 5-3 win over Pittsburgh and on 1/31/1987 in a 3-1 loss to the NY Rangers. Stevens would get an assist during the Pittsburgh game on a Dave Poulin third period goal. The jersey consists of light but evident wear with a small mark on the the right sleeve cuff area. There are a few dark brown stains to the right of and under the crest (possibly blood). The left arm #1 has a black mark. The rear of the jerseys shows nice even wear and the nameplate of matching mesh material seems to have yellowed over time. The fight strap which shows salting, has been attached through the rear #1. The original CCM fight strap was cut out by the team and the older style Eagle strap was used. This was a common practice for jerseys in the home and road CCM sets with the long black cuffs.
On 10/22/06, Stevens was hired as the new Flyers head coach. He was the 16th head coach in the history of the team that will be remembered for taking a team that was in the basement of the NHL at the end of the 06-07 season to the Conference Finals the very next year in the 07-08. |
