Wayne Gretzky's final Edmonton Oilers jersey, worn in Edmonton's 1987-88 playoff run that saw them win their fourth of five Stanley Cup titles, sold for $1.452 million (including buyer's premium) with Grey Flannel Auctions on Sunday night.

It was the most ever paid for a hockey jersey. The previous record was $1.3 million, which was paid for Canadian hero Paul Henderson's 1972 Summit Series jersey.

The uniform top was worn during the controversial Game 4 of the 1988 Stanley Cup Finals against the Boston Bruins, With less than four minutes to go in the second period, with the score tied at 3 -- Edmonton up 3-0 in the series -- Boston Garden's electricity went out. The game was called and replayed from the beginning two days later, which Edmonton won 6-3.

Gretzky, once Edmonton emerged victorious, had his puck-and-stick-scuffed jersey doused in champagne, which are still visible on the uniform today.

He was also awarded his second Conn Smythe Trophy for his playoff MVP performance; Gretzky is still one of only five ever NHL players to win two Conn Smythe Trophies.

Roughly three months later, Gretzky was traded to the Los Angeles Kings.

In the same auction, Gretzky's gloves from the same Stanley Cup-clinching game sold for $204,162.
