If it says "Croby" on the back, it's a fake...

Seriously though, I'm curious as to the details of how it was recovered.

If it is the right one, what happens to the white one that sold for over 20,000 on eBay?

It didn't sell. Hockey Canada pulled it from the auction when they learned Crosby's red jersey went missing, and gave the white one to him.

Now that they have his red jersey back, I imagine Hockey Canada will put the white jersey back on eBay for a new auction.

A mailman found it in a Montreal mailbox. I also heard that they have a 48 year old Montreal man in custody.

Before they got the dude in custody, the news was reporting that there was a police investigation into the theft. Dude! I guess there's an investigation into any crime, but sheesh, they made it sound like an attempted murder.

Wow, no kidding. Well, chalk another one up for the good guys. A 48-year old Montreal man? Habfan?! I wonder if he posts on these boards!

What "special features" does this jersey have that a store bought authentic doesn't have? Fight strap?

I think authentic jerseys you buy have a fight strap as well. I remember a good site that pointed out all the differences..

Here it is.. http://www.jerseyexpress.com/information.php?osCsid=&info_id=7#fifteen

Because it was going to be sold, I would almost guarantee that there are other features on the jersey that allow it to be easily authenticated, like maybe some special thread woven into the jersey itself.

The guy who took it gave it to his daugther and she wore it to school for a day last week!!!!!!!!

"It was obviously his sweater," Mr. Saucier, 52, said. "It had Crosby in big letters and on the other side were all the logos and everything.

What does he mean? I thought hockey jerseys put the players names in big letters on the front with all the logos and everything on the forearms of the sleeves?

They said it smells pretty bad, so that's a good sign," Mr. Crosby joked to Halifax-based television station ATV.

Crosby thinks its a good sign that his jersey probably smells of perfume etc (whatever) from the girl who wore it to her school last week?

The jersey was found in my hometown, 2 streets away from where I live.

It was signed by all of Team Canada

I hear Crosby cried when he found out his jersey was missing. Now none of you can pick on Ovechkin.

It is possible the numbers and letters you would buy at certain retailers are slightly smaller than the ones on player-issued jerseys.

Even the jersey that Crosby worn gets overblown media coverage on a epic scale.

Cathy Jones of This Hour Has 22 Minutes was spot on with Friday the 15th episode

Paraphrase:

Now that Sydney Crosby’s missing jersey has been found Montreal police can start working on important cases once more, like finding a pair of mittens Crosby lost when he was 11.

pssst "Alec"

"Friday was the 14th" (sorry for being picky)

But yeah even Air Farce had a cab drving skit where the cab driver said (paraphrase): "Now all of Canada can slee in peace" (the passenger then said said) "Yes, Canada's aid is reaching Southeast Asia" (The Driver Replied) "No, Sidney Crosby got his jersey back"
