Derek Morris #53 black horsehead jersey.
Saint John Flames #47 Giguere jersey (I was debating between Giguere and St. Louis. Should have got St. Louis)
White Rob Niedermayer jersey on opening night 01-02 season.
Red Steve Reinprecht which I got in the season ticket holder pre-order when the jersey was launched (so the lettering is black).
The other Flames jerseys I have are great. Housley pedestal, Iginla pro, pedestal with "2000" patch and Lanny McDonald.

Don't know how you sleep at night with Mr. October-March Reichel and Lazy Morris hanging in your closet. Putrid.
Really wish I would've gotten a name/number when I got my "blindly ordered" STH authentic at the discount in 2003/4, to get the beautiful black lettering. I wonder if Great Plains would still have any of those letters left?
Have a pretty valuable game worn one from the 2004 playoffs, and thanks to our resident CP jersey hoarder, a Giordano Dynamo Moscow. but the oddest of the lot is still the authentic 2000 All Star Housley jersey that I picked up at the Fan Attic in preseason 2001 for $70.
Had a choice of it or the Val Bure (and that year were the ones with the Euro vs NA, and Euro red jersey had the names under the number). Housely's claim to fame after that point in his career was getting in trouble with Fleury and his handler at a strip bar when playing for Chicago. Bure's was continuing to be married to DJ Tanner, and having family dinner with his nutcase brother in law Mike Seaver.
