California Golden Seals Game Used Goves

These gloves come from the personal collection of Trainer Ken 'Doc" Fleger. The 2004 Hall of Fame inductee had an illustrious 33-year career as a trainer in the Alberta Senior League, the Western League, Central League, World Hockey Association and the National Hockey League.  The native of Drumheller, Alberta began his career in 1966 with that city’s senior team, which won the Allan Cup that year. The gloves are in new condition, maybe having been used for a game or two as the palms do show wear with the Pro Grip Horsehide Palm stampings, faded on the right glove. Beautiful and rare to find in this condition, these gloves return you to seventies hockey with wild colour schemes and heavy leather equipment.
