Wayne Gretzky’s 1988 Stanley Cup Final jersey sells for $2.8M, setting an all-time hockey record
The most expensive hockey jersey ever sold now belongs to Wayne Gretzky. And that’s probably how it should be.
The jersey Gretzky wore during Game 4 of the 1988 Stanley Cup Final just sold for a staggering $2,806,000, setting a new all-time record for a hockey jersey.

That same jersey — worn during his final championship run with the Edmonton Oilers — had previously held the record, selling for $1.452 million back in 2022.
Not anymore.
This isn’t just any game-worn sweater, either. It was worn during Gretzky’s final Stanley Cup run in 1988. Photo-matching later confirmed he wore it in multiple games, including Games 1 and 4 of the Final. It’s tied to one of the strangest moments in NHL history.
Game 4 against the Boston Bruins was famously canceled mid-game due to a power outage at Boston Garden with the score tied 3-3.
Two days later, the teams replayed the game, and the Oilers closed it out with a 6-3 win to complete the sweep and secure Gretzky’s fourth and final Stanley Cup.
He finished that postseason with 43 points in 19 games and took home the Conn Smythe Trophy as playoff MVP.
But wait, there’s more.
This jersey is also connected to another milestone. Gretzky wore it in a March 1, 1988, game where he recorded his 1,050th career assist, passing Gordie Howe for the NHL record at the time.
By the time he retired in 1999, Gretzky had piled up 1,963 assists — still 700+ more than any player in NHL history.
Shortly after that 1988 Cup run, Gretzky was traded to the Los Angeles Kings. He went on to play 20 seasons in the NHL before retiring in 1999, when he was immediately inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame with the waiting period waived.
And now, nearly three decades later, he’s still setting records.
An arrest warrant was reportedly issued for former Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director James Comey, according to multiple reports.

Illegal immigrant accused of killing newlywed couple in Oregon crash arrested by ICE after jail release
An illegal immigrant from India accused of causing a crash that killed a newlywed couple in Oregon has been arrested by federal immigration authorities after being released from jail, officials said.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said Tuesday that Rajinder Kumar, 32, was taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after being released by what the agency called “Oregon sanctuary politicians.”
Kumar allegedly jackknifed his semi-truck and trailer, blocking both lanes of U.S. Highway 20 in Deschutes County on Nov. 24, according to Fox 12 Oregon.
A Subaru Outback then collided with the truck, killing driver William Micah Carter and passenger Jennifer Lynn Lower, DHS said. The couple had been married for just 16 days.
DHS said Oregon officials declined to cooperate with ICE and released Kumar on April 2. ICE agents arrested him April 22 and he is now being held at the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma pending deportation proceedings.
Kumar has been charged with criminally negligent homicide and reckless endangerment, DHS said.
According to DHS, Kumar entered the U.S. illegally near Lukeville, Arizona, in November 2022 and was later released into the country by the Biden administration. He was granted work authorization in 2023 and obtained a commercial driver’s license in California.

Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis blamed California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s administration for issuing the license.
“This illegal alien was issued a CDL by Gavin Newsom’s California,” Bis said in a statement. “He then went on to recklessly drive a truck on America’s highways and KILL two honeymooners.”
“Instead of cooperating with ICE law enforcement, Oregon sanctuary politicians RELEASED him from jail back into American communities,” she added.
Bis said sanctuary policies endanger public safety.
“Every time sanctuary politicians release a dangerous criminal illegal alien back into our communities, they are gambling with American lives,” Bis added. “We are grateful to our ICE law enforcement officers who tracked this killer down to ensure he’s permanently removed from America’s highways and can never harm another American family again.”
Fox News Digital has reached out to Newsom’s office for comment and DHS for clarification on Oregon officials’ level of cooperation.
