2020-21 Kaapo Kakko Reverse Retro Liberty Set (Fanatics)

This is Kaapo Kakko's Reverse Retro Liberty game worn jersey worn in 4 games during the 2021 season. Kaapo wore this sweater 2/28, 3/4, 3/17 and 4/15. The sweater consists of lighter wear, a few board burns and an unprepared hole in the left sleeve.. I was able to photo match the sweater to a loose whisker on the 2 of left arm number... Kakko improved quite a bit this season statistically.  He finished his sophomore campaign with 9 goals, 8 assists for 17 points in 48 games.  Kaapo has a very bright future with the New York Rangers and will be a star on Broadway for years to come.

2006-07 Matt Cullen Liberty (MeiGray)

This is Matt Cullen's Liberty game worn jersey from the Garth Brooks/NHL Teammates for Kids Night at MSG from January 7th, 2007.  The jersey is fairly pristine with very minor pilling.  The jersey was customized with a nameplate which wasn't done by the Rangers until a couple of years later, making me wonder if someone other than the Rangers letter these sweaters that were worn throughout the NHL that night.  The numbers are not layered but kiss cut which is very nice.  The Liberty sweaters have always been a favorite of mine and this is a beautiful gamer representing how nice these sweaters really are.. The Rangers defeated the Flyers at MSG that night by the score of 3-2.  Cullen didn't register any points that night but spent 2 minutes in the penalty box.
