There were numerous hidden pins (it looks like your sleeves are pinned to shrink the size) that cause noticeable damage to the jerseys along with the fact that the cardboard/matt-board was NOT acid free and yellowed and bled onto my white jerseys and discolored my dark jerseys. I now use the following frames as they can easily be removed, rotated, and laid flat to avoid damage. Yes we have different opinions, but most of those stretch wrinkles would concern me as they would NEVER be present if the jersey was naturally hanging.

    The circles under the armpit areas scream that the jersey is being pulled and stretched. The way it's framed, you can't just pull out the jersey to check out the current state. Again, I'm only pointing this out because IMO if you leave it as is, there will be a risk of permanent damage the longer you keep it framed like that. A D. Sedin Finals jersey is one of those types of jerseys you want to keep pristine and be able to monitor and check out the state over the years. There is a reason why you never see jerseys framed like that in a museum or even in the majority of private collections. I like to think of this kind of frame as a set it and forget it frame for authentic signed jersey and not for historic game worn pieces.
    Thanks for your concern about all my jerseys but now you're really getting carried away. There are no areas on my jerseys that are "screaming" I didn't buy these jerseys to put them on a hanger then put them in my closet away from sunlight and human eyes. These jersey will be fine. I'm really not worried about them turning into dust and blowing away. Thanks for the comments though & point taken.

    Damn after reading these posts, I do feel bad about my jerseys collection.

    They are sitting in sealed ziplock bags - in plastic containers - and in a corner of the cool basement.

    And they all scream "let me out so others can enjoy me"
