After the New England Whalers chose him in the WHA General Player
Draft in 1972 and promised more than a utility role, Karlander
switched from the NHL to the upstart WHA. He scored 61 points in
1973-74 when he was thrust into more of an offensive role with the
Whalers while wearing this jersey. A home, white jersey with the
large harpoon style crest on the front. Gerry Cosby tag in the collar
along with a size 46 tag affixed to the left of the Cosby tag. Blood
stains below the crest and sweat staining on the front below the
collar. Stick marks through the numbers on the left sleeve. Six total
repairs with one on the left cuff, two on the front left side, one on
the back right side, and two on the back left side. Scuffs and burns
throughout the jersey. Paint transfers on the back hem. Another Whale
of a jersey!
