Late 1980s Alain Raymond Game-Used Stick

Born on June 26, 1965, Alain Raymond was drafted 215th overall in 1983 by the Washington Capitals. A solid QMJHL prospect, Raymond made his NHL debut on December 9, 1987, against the Hartford Whalers.  He played 40 minutes in relief of Clint Malarchuk and stopped 18 of the 20 shots that he faced on that day. He never played in an NHL game ever again as he alternated between the ECHL, IHL and AHL, eventually retiring from play in 1991-92 while with the Peoria Rivermen. This stick may have been used by him during that lone game. The coloring matches the Capitals colors of the 1980s. 

In his one game NHL career, Raymond recorded a 0-1-0 record with a 3.00GAA and a 0.900% save average. 

Acquired from fellow collector in Edmonton.
