Arizona Coyotes Anton Stralman game-worn TRUE Custom skates from 2021-22 season (NM condition)

These are a pair of game-worn skates of Arizona Coyotes defenseman Anton Stralman from the 2nd half of the 2021-22 NHL season, his first with the team. The skates were lightly used by Stralman and are in NM condition. They are TRUE Custom skates with his initials "AS" screened on both tongues. No size stamp or writing inside the boot but the custom blade holders are 272 so that would make the skates about a size 8. The custom insoles have a 9 sticker. The Coyotes equipment staff put #86 Kachina logo stickers on both undersoles as Arizona rebranded for the 2021-22 season. These skates have unique blade holders and the blades have a V+ logo with a Nike-like swoosh. Stralman wore TRUE skates in past seasons when he played for Tampa Bay and Florida. The Sweden native was a 7th-round draft pick of Toronto in 2005 and has played in the NHL since 2007 with the Maple Leafs, Blue Jackets, Rangers, Lightning and Panthers before the Coyotes acquired him in a trade with Florida in July 2021. The skates were obtained directly from the Coyotes.

“

The True Pro Custom are the skates I currently use. They're fantastic. The durability on these is just otherworldly. I've used my Pro Customs for over two years, and they still hold up great. In being custom, a lot of the holders (what keeps the steel in) can be swapped out. They will feature the quick-release Bauer version, or you'll see these skates with the quick-release CCM version. When you're looking for these skates, you can pretty much find whatever you desire.
