Milestone memorabilia in this pair of hockey skates game worn as Pittsburgh Penguins legend Ron Francis registered his 1,000th career point. Bauer Tuuk+ ice skates show great use with cuts and scuffs on the toecap of both and pilling inside the tongues, insoles have been removed from both. Small tag inside ankle of each is difficult to read, but appears to have "995 - 9 1/2 - AA," likely including the size. Each has Bauer Supreme Custom on the ankle cuff above a "1000" logo, and on the white sole of each, "1000" and "10" are written in black marker. Francis became only the 38th player in NHL history to hit the four-figure points plateau with his second-period goal against the Quebec Nordiques on October 28, 1993. He recorded point number 999 with a first-period assist on a Kevin Stevens goal, but it was not enough as the Pens fell to a 7-3 defeat. Francis earned his Hall of Fame credentials as he remains 2nd in all-time NHL assists (1,249), a pair of Stanley Cup titles, and three Lady Byng league awards for excellence and sportsmanship on the ice.
