1990-91 Wayne Gretzky Los Angeles Kings Game-Used Road Jersey

Wayne Gretzky’s Los Angeles Kings Jersey: A Legendary Artifact

A Testament to Hockey Greatness

Wayne Gretzky, affectionately known as “The Great One,” stands as the most prolific point-scorer in the history of the NHL. His unparalleled achievements include more assists than any other player has points, and he remains the only NHL player to have surpassed 200 points in a single season—a feat he accomplished an astounding four times. Over his illustrious career, Gretzky amassed over 100 points in 16 professional seasons, with 14 of those being consecutive. At the time of his retirement in 1999, he held an astonishing 40 regular-season records, 15 playoff records, and six All-Star records. His immediate induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame, bypassing the usual waiting period, underscores his monumental impact on the sport.

The Iconic Kings Jersey

This particular jersey, presented to us as game-used, is a remarkable piece of hockey memorabilia. It is one of only four authentic Gretzky Kings gamers authenticated by Casey Samuelson. The jersey features the “Maska Ultrafil” tag with “54” inscribed in black ink inside the rear collar. A black strip tag with “99” embroidered in white stitch is located inside the right rear tail, adjacent to a Velcro strip that Gretzky used to tuck in the right rear tail. The “CCM” logo adorns each outer tail, while the front proudly displays the “LOS ANGELES KINGS” large team crest. The Captain’s “C” is elegantly rendered in silver on white tackle twill on the left chest.

Distinctive Features

• Player Number: The iconic number “99” appears on each sleeve and the back, crafted in silver on black tackle twill.
• Player Name: “GRETZKY” is emblazoned on a black nameplate, with letters in silver on white tackle twill.
• Hall of Fame Connection: The initials of the Hockey Hall of Fame curator are handwritten on the inner elbow pad, referenced on the HHoF LOA.
