This
majestic jersey dates back to the Stanley Cup winning season of 1977-78
from this former first- round pick of the Montreal Canadiens.
Road red
Wilson
jersey (Size 42!!) boasts the anticipated wear one would expect from
Doug.
Several large repairs are evident including one massive
restoration spanning 4 ½ inches in length along the right sleeve.
Sensational pilling, dozens of small snags and rips, as well as
general tattering around the numbers highlight this wonderful shirt.
Few players brought as much to the proverbial hockey table as
this 4-time
Stanley
Cup champion.
Doug Risebrough’s dependability and consistency made him more
than just a coveted member of the Canadiens, but an integral part of
their overall success.
Doug was an assiduous role model who did the little things that
resulted in pivotal victories.
Risebrough was an aggressive, uncompromising, in-your-face
agitator, a player who succeeded in aggravating the opposition,
characteristically causing general disorder.
The Ontario native was the ideal blend of peskiness and
resolution whose depiction was sound defensive play united with an
ability for scoring important goals.
