1981 Alan Hangsleben Game Worn Team USA Canada Cup Jersey
A simple U-S-A tracks down the front of defenseman Alan Hangsleben's game-worn jersey from the 1981 Canada Cup. If the threading around the red letters looks stressed, it's because the Americans faced Canadian and Soviet squads hellbent on a grudge match against each other. Hangsleben's NHL career was peaking around the same time as this international competition, best known for being delayed a year because of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and for helping to introduce Wayne Gretzky to the world. Cooper polyester features always-welcomed patriotic touches, including a white star on the red and blue sleeve piping. Grime and stick smears on the white part of the jersey show that Uncle Sam wasn't ready to cry uncle despite the tough competition.
