The jersey is marked "II" in the collar, and "3" on the fight strap, with the strap marking being the set mark. The jersey shows very good wear, reflecting Deadmarsh's style of play. The jersey also shows the difference in cut from the Starter to the Pro Player. The NHL 2000 commemorative is located on the right chest. Also evident on this shirt is the bend in the back numbers that correspond to the large back pad that Deadmarsh wears. This jersey shows very heavy wear, with a number of unrepaired tears in the body and arms. There are heavy stick marks located randomly throughout the shirt. The jersey has a nice grouping of marks and an unrepaired tear on the lower front body. Accompanied by Meigray documents and Team LOA.

He previously represented the Canadian Pacific under-17 Midget team at the 1992 World Hockey Challenge and helped lead the Canadian under-18 Junior team to a gold medal at the 1992 Pacific Cup.
Deadmarsh then represented the United States' under-20 team at the 1993, 1994, and 1995 World Junior Championships, thanks to his dual citizenship. (His mother is American and his father is Canadian.) With the national U.S. team in 1996, he first won a silver medal at the World Championships and then won a gold medal at the World Cup of Hockey. In February 1998, he was a member of the United States Olympic team at the Winter Games in Nagano, Japan.
Deadmarsh was drafted 14th overall in the 1993 NHL Entry Draft by the Quebec Nordiques. He made his NHL debut one season later on January 25, 1995 against the Philadelphia Flyers and scored his first goal two nights later against the Buffalo Sabres.
In 1995-96, Deadmarsh moved with the franchise to Colorado, where the team was renamed the Avalanche and scored 21 goals and 48 points as a sophomore.
After winning the Pacific Division title in the regular season, the Avalanche marched all the way to the Stanley Cup title, defeating the Detroit Red Wings for the Clarence Campbell Bowl in the Western Conference and the sweeping the Florida Panthers for the Stanley Cup. In 22 post-season games, he scored five goals and 12 assists for 17 points.
The following year Deadmarsh led the Avalanche with 33 goals as the team won the Presidents' Trophy with a league best and franchise record 49 wins and 107 points. He also scored a career-high 60 points. In the playoffs, he scored nine points as the Avalanche advanced to the Western Conference finals before losing to the Red Wings.
In 1999-00, Deadmarsh scored 45 points as the Avalanche won their sixth straight division title and in the playoffs, led the Avalanche to the Western Conference finals before again losing this time to the Dallas Stars.
After six seasons in Colorado/Quebec, Deadmarsh was traded to the Los Angeles Kings midway through his seventh season with the organization. Since his arrival in Los Angeles, Deadmarsh has been plagued by injuries which limited him to a mear 20 games in 2002-03.
