Notes:
- The 84-85 jerseys are distinguished by a CCM patch sewn on the rear hem and Gunzo’s screened. This is the only year where a patch was sewn on for CCM, following seasons had the CCM embroidered into the material.
- The CCM patch features a lighter blue M than subsequent years when CCM is embroidered into the hem.
- This season’s jerseys are confusing as written in black marker behind the CCM patch is “85-86”. Photo and video evidence has proven this to be incorrect as the next year’s shirts introduced the “Goalieman” on the rear hem. Not all jerseys have this behind the the CCM, but many do and are often miss-identified because of it. According to Milt Byron, the jerseys came this way from the team. He believes it was written there as they were used in the 85-86 preseason.
- Born-on tags are often found in the neck of jerseys from this set. It is a separate tag behind the CCM tag. The tag has the year & month the Jersey was produced, so ‘84 07’ is July of 1984.
- Many jerseys in this set, including playoff mesh jerseys, had their nameplates removed for the next preseason. The nameplates were sewn back on by the team in the 85 preseason, prior to their release.
- In the playoffs, the team switched to a mesh jersey. Several of the red jerseys in this set have green board burns from the Met in Minnesota. The mesh set did not have writing behind the CCM as the regular season shirts did and featured the CCM patch on the rear hem and screened Gunzo’s.
