This is enforcer Eric Boulton's Buffalo Sabres "New York" style game-issued jersey. On October 7, 2001 at Madison Square Garden in New York the New York Rangers faced the Buffalo Sabres in a special game. Both teams wore their jerseys with the words "New York" positioned diagonally across the front in the wake of the 9-11 attacks on the World Trade Center less than a month earlier. Each player had one jersey except for four Sabres who had a backup jerseys made for the community relations department. This is one of those game-issued jerseys. This jersey originated from Boulton himself at a charity golf auction, and is autographed on the back between the numbers.
