Welcome to the MeiGray Group Game-Worn Jersey Authentication Program's Pekka Rinne Retirement Auction.
The MeiGray Group Game-Worn Jersey Authentication Program is proud to offer fans and collectors across the globe the opportunity to own a piece of history ... a puck used by the Nashville Predators during the 2020-21 National Hockey League season.
This puck was used during Pekka Rinne's final NHL game. The Nashville Predators defeated the Carolina Hurricanes, 5-0, on May 10, 2021 at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, TN. Rinne recorded 30 saves for his 369th career win and 60th career shutout.
Rinne, who played all 15 of his NHL seasons with the Nashville Predators, announced his retirement after 772 games, 414 victories, 44,173 minutes, and 19,718 pucks stopped. The 38-year-old native of Finland left quite a legacy. He won the Vezina Trophy in 2018 as the NHL’s best goalie, helped lead Nashville to its only Stanley Cup Final appearance in 2017, was a three-time All-Star and even scored a goal, on January 9, 2020 vs. the Chicago Blackhawks.
This puck is registered into the MGG Game-Worn Jersey Authentication Program as number MGA008612.
Each puck was lifted off the ice by an on-ice NHL official, identified and secured by an NHL off-ice official in the arena during or after the game, and then authenticated and affixed with a hologram by MeiGray.
MeiGray is collecting and authenticating pucks from six of our program teams: From games in Boston, Columbus, Nashville, New Jersey, Philadelphia, and Washington. MGG has also collected and authenticated pucks from previous seasons in Dallas, Philadelphia, Vegas and New York's Madison Square Garden. Scorers throughout the NHL, including some of the game's greatest goal-scorers, have notched goals that MGG has authenticated, and is proud to offer for immediate bid.
Additionally, with MeiGray's Game-Worn Jersey Program, every jersey worn by the participating teams contains a uniquely numbered inventory tag sewn into the jersey BEFORE IT IS WORN BY THE PLAYER ON THE ICE. This tag is equipped with security features regularly checked by MGG Game-Worn Jersey Program Directors so we can tell who wore the jersey, and when.
