I'm wondering why someone would fake a single color jersey swatch? Maybe a single color patch swapped out for a multi-color one, but faking this card makes no sense. Based on that reasoning, I'd have to say it is legit.

Im about 98% sure its a good jersey, ive spent a lot of time comparing the replica and authentic jerseys at their team store and i definitely can say the authentic jerseys are a heavier material and are very similar to the old ones, specifically the blue ones. Im not sure why they used that style so similar to the old style ones but they did for the ones sold in their jersey store at least.

That's one of the powder blues that the Penguins have been busting out on occasion. Panini's acquired not only Sid's but also those of a couple others on the team.

When the edge jerseys first came out, the entire jersey was made of edge material but the players complained about it. I believe the reasoning was sweat was rolling into their gloves from their sleeves.

Reebok made the 2.0 which has some edge material but is mostly made of airknit (same as the 6100 jerseys before edge), however some players prefer the 1.0 (Mike Green is one of the few) so Reebok give players the choice to wear 1.0 or 2.0.

Retail jerseys are all 1.0 so I imagine that you are comparing the swatch to a jersey you bought for yourself to wear which wouldn't have any airknit on it.

okay i get what your saying, i bought an authentic zetterberg right when the edge came out, which has all edge material, i didnt know they made a hybrid so to speak, thanks!!

it looks legit.

It does look darker than this, but I think there is another jersey used as a retro.

It should be legit. It's from their alternate or their Winter Classic jersey. Definetly the same kind of color.
