Erik Johnson #6

2017-19 Adidas MiC (Size 58) TI
Salute to Service Warm Up Jersey

I found this blank Avs Salute to Service MiC on eBay and plan to get it customized as EJ, for a couple of reasons. I picked it up the year he retired and he’s the only one from the ’22 Cup team that would have worn this style (and isn’t playing for another team)

Here’s the two styles of customization this jersey:

2017-18, worn on 3/10/18 against the Yotes…

2018-19, worn on 3/15/19 against the Ducks…

I’m leaning toward the red, white, and blue for three reasons. It looks like EJ didn’t play in the 2018 game, that style of custo looks similar to the style of custo on my Francouz military jersey, and most importantly…

That Alternate Captain letter looks pretty sharp!
