Everyone tells me that... and I'm "supposed" to be an artist! :P I had that mask made in the 90's. It's actually the same design as the one Kirk McLean wore.
I just ordered an authentic Moscow White Bears minor hockey jersey for about $50. The price includes a number of my choice and my name in Russian. But I have to wait until the end of January until it arrives.
Nice. I have a white Kazakhstan goalie jersey (no numbers), I should let you borrow it sometime. It'd pretty big on me, so I don't really wear it. I even tried to use it as a lacrosse practise jersey and it was still big even with padding.
The two times I have ever played ice hockey (ca. 1992), I wore a Quebec Nordiques jersey.
Is this (http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=013&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=230060834545&rd=1&rd=1) the Kazakhstan jersey you have?
No, that one is for a team in the Kazakh national league.
My jersey is a Kazakhstan national team jersey exaclty like the one in this http://www.hockeyarchives.info/matches/2002/photos/2002-04-17-France-Kazakhstan.jpg picture.
I believe Evgeny Nabakov used to be one of the Kazakh goaltenders areound the same time my jersey was produced and used; the style has since changed slightly, the arm striping more angled like the Washington Capitals road whites and the word КАЗАКСТАН now appears under the front logo. On my jersey, КАЗАКСТАН only appears on the lower back striping
The guy I'm buying the jerseys from sold an authentic Kazakhstan jersey as well. For most of them, he has the winning bidder provide the required size and name and number free of charge for him to order from the Russian manufacturer (Lutch). He only has 2 jerseys on his eBay (http://search.ebay.ca/_W0QQfgtpZ1QQfrppZ25QQsassZglobalQ5fhockeyQQssPageNameZSTRKQ3aMEWAQ3aMESOI) store right now but he had 3 pages just before the weekend.
I have to warn you that white jerseys might pick up puck marks...
Oh yeah, I forgot about puck marks. Hmmm. They don't come off too easy either. I have a couple of game worn Norwegian Olympic / WC jerseys that are marked up, and these are just regular skater jerseys as well.
Ha ha... thanks! I played in that community center rink before and hated it. There are no change rooms or benches... and players always worried about getting their heads too close to that rough wall around the rink! It's great to skate in though!
