Welcome to the 2024 PWHL Minnesota Inaugural Season White Game-Worn Jersey Auction.
The PWHL-MeiGray Game-Worn Jersey Authentication Program is proud to offer fans and collectors across the globe the opportunity to own a piece of history ... the jersey worn by #13 Grace Zumwinkle of the PWHL Minnesota during the Professional Women's Hockey League's inaugural 2024 season.
MeiGray has teamed up with the Professional Women's Hockey League to bring fully authenticated jerseys from its inaugural season to fans and collectors as the league's popularity continues to skyrocket.
Grace Zumwinkle wore this white jersey while playing for PWHL Minnesota during the inaugural 2024 Professional Women's Hockey League season, including during the team's inaugural game against PWHL Boston on January 3, 2024 at Tsongas Arena in Lowell, MA. Minnesota defeated Boston, 3-2.
The jersey is photo-matched to the team's inaugural game and to Minnesota's 2-1 victory over PWHL Ottawa on February 17, 2024 at TD Place in Ottawa, ON.
PWHL Minnesota wore this first set of white jerseys in seven games from January 3 through March 3, 2024. This jersey has two unrepaired holes in the right sleeve.
PWHL Toronto selected PWHL Minnesota - in the midst of a five-game losing streak - as its Walter Cup Semifinals opponent, per the PWHL's unique new rule. After being shut out in the first two games of the series, Minnesota went on to make an improbable run, holding Toronto to one goal in the next three games and completing a reverse sweep to reach the Walter Cup Finals.
In a captivating series that went five games, Minnesota celebrated what they thought was a series-winning double overtime goal in Game 4, but was overturned due to goaltender interference. Nevertheless, Minnesota stormed into Tsongas Arena in Lowell, MA for Game 5 and locked down PWHL Boston with a 3-0 victory to win the first ever Walter Cup.
Zumwinkle was the 13th overall pick in the inaugural PWHL draft, and led the team in goals (11) and points (19) in 2024 during the regular season. She was ultimately named the league's Rookie of the Year and to the PWHL's 2024 Second All-Star Team. She scored one goal in 10 postseason games. Previously, Zumwinkle earned two silver medals with Team USA at IIHF World Championships and was part of the team that won silver at the 2022 Olympic Games in Beijing. She was a two-time finalist for the Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award, and was named Ms. Hockey Minnesota in 2017.
