Edmonton Oilers x Wayne Gretzky [1981-1988]

Today's jersey post is Wayne Gretzky of the Edmonton Oilers, only this time, it's the road colours with the dark blue body with the orange and white trim. I absolutely love the dark coloured versions of these jerseys. It was the style the team wore in the glory years when they won 4 Stanley Cup Championships in the 1980s.

I posted an earlier entry of my custom version of this jersey, but this is an official CCM Vintage product. Originally purchased as a blank, the name and numbers were added on later. I can never get over how triple layered tackle twill looks on a road uniform.

RIP Joey Moss
In 1985, the organizations mentioned in the video were renamed to The Canadian Association for Community Living. On 14 September 2014, they rebranded to Inclusion Canada.
