Ted Green’s Boston Bruins Jersey: A Testament to Hockey History
A Storied Career in the NHL
Ted Green, a name synonymous with resilience and tenacity, etched his legacy in the annals of hockey history with his remarkable career. A two-time Stanley Cup champion with the Boston Bruins in 1970 and 1972, Green’s contributions to the sport extended beyond his playing days, as he later secured five more Stanley Cups as part of the Edmonton Oilers coaching staff. His journey, however, was not without its challenges. In 1969, Green was involved in a notorious stick fight during an exhibition game, resulting in a fractured skull and brain damage, sidelining him for the remainder of the season.
The Iconic Bruins Jersey
This particular jersey, a relic from Green’s illustrious career, is a symbol of his enduring legacy. The absence of the manufacturer’s tag is overshadowed by the rich history it embodies. Adorned with a black on yellow tackle twill “A” on the left chest, this jersey proudly displays the Bruins’ “B” logo in black on yellow tackle twill on the front. The back features the player number “6” in black tackle twill with a white stitched border, set against yellow tackle twill. This jersey has been presented to us as game-used and in our opinion, shows outstanding use, further evidenced by the team repairs on the sewn-in elbow pads and throughout the front and back.
