Though his playing career was uninspiring, Art Berglund's contribution to hockey was so immense it saw him win the Lester Patrick Award in 1992. Rather than on the ice, Berglund made his contribution as an executive, serving as the general manager of the U.S. Olympic team in 1976 and again in 1988. This Team USA Olympic Hockey warm-up and jacket belonging to Berglund were made specifically for the 1988 team that was bounced out of the Calgary games in the group stage. The warm-up suit consists of jacket and pants made by Adidas and shows good use, while the heavy, blue, full-length jacket has a tag inside reading "Made Exclusively For The 1988 US Olympic Team."
