About This Item

Who were the Danbury Trashers?

The Danbury Trashers are one of the most unique stories in hockey history, as told through the Netflix documentary, Untold: Crime & Penalties. We highly recommend the documentary to hear the full history of the team from the people who were there!

The Trashers played for only two seasons, but left a mark literally and figuratively on the hockey world.

The Trashers started play in 2004 at the Danbury Ice Arena as an expansion franchise in the UHL, which operated at the 'AA' level. James Galante, who owned a large trash hauling business, purchased the expansion rights and named his 17-year-old son, AJ, as General Manager. Not afraid to make a splash, AJ signed Brent Gretzky, Wayne's brother, to bring a big name to the box office. AJ also scooped up a number of heavy hitters and gave the team a rough and tumble style of play, and the team set a league record with 2,776 penalty minutes. Among the heavy hitters the team featured were Jon Mirasty, Rumun Ndur, and Brad Wingfield. The roster construction worked. In their first season, the Trashers won 44 of 80 games and made the playoffs. They would fall in the second round of the playoffs.

The team's second season was even better, winning 48 of 76 games and another playoff appearance. They scored over 300 goals and toned it down a touch, with "only" 2,278 penalty minutes. The team kicked into gear in December, going 11-0-3 for an undefeated month en route to a division title and 107 points. The Trashers also made a memorable run all the way to the league Final, advancing through the first two rounds in exciting fashion via a Game 7 win in the first round and a triple OT win in Game 6 in the second round. They would fall to Kalamazoo in the Final. After the season, the elder Galante would be indicted and the team folded.

This would make a unique gift for the hockey fan in your life or a neat find for yourself of a vintage hockey team.

Hockey Jersey Size Chart

Generally speaking, the jersey sizing for adults is consistent with official NHL replicas from recent years. We strongly encourage consulting the size chart provided and comparing the measurements to jerseys you currently own. For a loose, traditional style jersey that will easily fit over a hoodie or sweatshirt, order your normal jersey size (i.e. if you buy Adult XL from the NHL, Adult XL is your best bet). If you are generally between sizes, we recommend the smaller size (i.e. if you sometimes wear L and sometimes wear XL, we recommend L).

The sizes below generally equate to numbered jersey sizing as follows, but use this as a guide and not a rule.

Small - 46, Medium - 50, Large - 52, XL - 54, 2XL - 56, 3XL - 60
