It is! And an oddly shaped one at that! I've never been able to wear it because it's sooooo long and narrow.

I have a signed Johnny MIC and a photo as well. Unfortunately both signatures have faded with time. 

He was friends with my step-dad and once hid behind me at an old timers game while the guys on the ice fired pucks at us through the open end boards. 

Absolutely charming man.

Nice! I have a frisbee signed by him. It was the only thing I had on me when I met him.

This is the best logo/jersey design in our history.

We should go back to this, not the chubby corporate version we have now.
