Denis Savard was named one of the 100 Greatest NHL Players in history. Offered is a 1981-82 Denis Savard game worn Chicago Black Hawks jersey. The Hall of Fame center played 17 seasons in the NHL. Savard played two stints with the Chicago Black Hawks, from 1980-81 through 1989-90 and then from 1994-95 through 1996-97. He also played two seasons with the Montreal Canadiens and two seasons with the Tampa Bay Lightning. Over his NHL career, Savard played in 1,196 games and tallied 473 goals and 865 assists, for 1,336 points, more than a point-a-game. Savard was noted for his famed "Spin-o-rama" move, in which he spun around in a circle with the puck to create distance between the puck and his opponent. The 5'10" 170 pounder was a great puck handler and had amazing puck control as he would deke opponents and skate past them. Savard has the top four single season point totals in Black Hawks history, and his total of 131 points in 1987-88 is the highest in franchise history. The Black Hawks made the playoffs in each of Savard's 13 years with the team, and Savard has the highest playoff point total in Black Hawks history, with 145 points. Savard played on the Stanley Cup winning Montreal Canadiens in 1992-93. The white jersey has an original black number 18, with red trim, on the back, and an original black 18 with red trim is on each sleeve. An original Chicago Black Hawk crest is on the chest and original logos are on each sleeve. A faded Sandow SK tag is in the collar, and a Sandow SK is screened on the back hem. The name plate has been removed, but the jersey comes with an original "SAVARD" nameplate. We don't think that this is the one that was on this jersey, but it was off a vintage Denis Savard Black Hawks jersey. The jersey shows fine use with pilling, stick marks, paint transfers, and a blood stain. This game used Savard jersey has lasting value as Savard is one of the Black Hawks' greatest stars.
