Rust portait ce maillot à domicile pour le match annuel « Shirts Off Our Backs » des Penguins. Les Pens ont affronté les Predators de Nashville le 15/04 dans un match qui avait des implications majeures en séries éliminatoires à l’époque. Pittsburgh a battu les Preds par un score de 4-2. Rust a récolté une passe sur le but de Sidney Crosby en première période. Cette passe était la 200e de Rust en carrière dans la LNH. Rusty a terminé le match avec la seule passe décisive, 5 tirs au but et un score de moins 1 en 22 :00 de temps de glace. À la fin du match, les partisans qui ont échangé un « maillot sur le dos » contre un billet à gratter ont été escortés jusqu’à la glace pour rencontrer un joueur et recevoir un maillot porté par le joueur sur le dos du joueur.

Beauty I have his RR2.0 gamer my favorite jersey
What does it smell like? Hopefully they didn’t wash it
Has anyone been through the process?
Always wondered if they force you to get the personalized autograph?
I’m anti autograph. I’d much rather have my favorite players jersey, unsigned. I especially don’t want my own name sctibbled anywhere.
But wondered if they force the « to xyz » to tamp down immediate resale. ?
Can you walk out sharpie- free?
Did you actually win this from the scratch cards they were randomly handing out at the door?
In 21 years as a STH, the Pens have featured me in Ice Time and the Mellon Arena scoreboard for Season Ticket Holder Spotlights. But I’d trade em both for a jersey off a Pens’ back.
That is so cool, I hope one day I can afford a gamer. I wish adidas “authentics” were the level of quality the gamers are.
Closest I’ve come is randomly getting a Dumo signed jersey in a charity bag one year. Obviously it’s not game worn, but buying one of the lesser charity bags and ending up with a high end, signed jersey was such a huge thrill.
Hey how close is it to the material of the “authentic” you can buy in the store
