CCM NHL Vintage Collection of jerseys – 2002 to 2004

Hi folks!

This blog posting will be a bit short and sweet.

I just posted two blogs about CCM's Heritage Collection of jerseys 1992 - 2002, and thought that was going to be the end of it. I wanted to end when the NHL (and CCM) stopped the "Heritage Collection" of jerseys and went to the "Vintage Collection" of jerseys. By sticking with the Heritage line, it gave a nice beginning and end to the project.

But then I discovered that several years ago I had done further investigative work into CCM's initial offerings of their Vintage Collection line from 2002 - 2004, so I thought I should at least share this info and invite feedback. I feel a bit like Al Pacino's character in Godfather 3 - just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in...

My research suggests that CCM made/sold 34 Vintage Collection jerseys from 2002 - 2004. The feedback I would love from you is:

1. Is this info right as far as you know?

2. Can you fill in some of the years that the Vintage Collection jerseys that were made/sold were celebrating? For instance, I list jersey #10 as being Buffalo Sabres Away style, but I don't have a year - can you tell me what year the jersey was celebrating?

Here's the list of 34 jerseys:

And here's the same list with a bit more info about the source of the info - this might be hard to read.

Short and sweet as promised!

Thanks -
Scott
