Last November, Glenn Anderson joined an elite group of Oilers in the Hockey Hall of Fame. On January 18. 2009 at Rexall Place, where the legendary story began, the Edmonton Oilers raised Anderson’s royal blue and orange No. 9 to the rafters.
In an inspiring, emotional and historic pre-game ceremony before the Oilers’ 6-3 victory over the Phoenix Coyotes, Anderson joined Paul Coffey, Grant Fuhr, Wayne Gretzky, Allan Hamilton, Jari Kurri and Mark Messier as Oilers who have had their numbers retired.
After players from the Oilers and Coyotes filed into their benches to watch a moving video tribute and VIP introductions, the six-time Stanley Cup champion and franchise hero surprised the crowd by hopping off the Oilers bench in full gear and completing a triumphant lap around the ice. "It's great to be back in this uniform again," Anderson said at the podium. "Putting this jersey on is like coming home and getting into your comfy clothes."
And now you can own a game-worn jersey from this very special night.
Twenty game-worn jerseys, six game-issued jerseys of Oilers who were not in the lineup that night, eight goal pucks and twelve game-used pucks with the Oilers’ 30th Anniversary logo, ARE NOW UP FOR BID.
The Edmonton Oilers-MeiGray Group Game-Worn Jersey Authentication Program is proud to offer the opportunity to own a piece of history … … the actual Retro style jersey worn during the first and second periods on Glenn Anderson Night by #67, Gilbert Brule of the Edmonton Oilers.
The Retro style jersey, in the memorable royal blue and orange colors of the Oilers’ Dynasty Years, is a Size 56 and is registered into the Oilers-MGG Game-Worn Jersey Authentication Program as number F10572. Each jersey has the official Glenn Anderson #9 patch sewn onto the right front of the jersey.
The Oilers wore one special set of Retro jerseys during the warmup, and two special sets of Retro jerseys during the game, all with the Anderson Night Patch.
The set of Retro jerseys worn in the first and second period is this set now up for bid.
The set of Retro jerseys worn in the third period were awarded to the players.
Every jersey worn by each of the 15 participating MeiGray Game-Worn Jersey Authentication Program clubs contains a uniquely numbered inventory tag sewn into the jersey BEFORE IT IS WORN BY THE PLAYER ON THE ICE. This tag is equipped with covert security features regularly checked by MGG Program Directors so we can tell who wore the jersey, and when.
