The weird part about this ttm is that i sent out Datsyuk to his home today. I got Datsyuk back today (the day i sent him out). This was the best looking ttm i have ever gotten! It is signed in blue sharpie marker. It just looks so cool! Sp Authentic 10/11 are great for signing. This was the best ttm day along with Jordan Staal in 2013! Now the lesson learned here is to never give up on your ttm's! He also put this weird yellow slip for the return address on the SASE. Put your comments in if you think it's cool! Thanks Mr. Datsyuk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sweet success from former penguin Jordan Staal. This was so far my best success along with Pavel Datsyuk up top. The Hurricanes flyer was from a fan pack so i sent it out and got it signed. Jordan nicely signed all my cards in blue sharpie marker. Staal recorded 25 goals lat year which was his second in goals for career high. Keep on looking! Thanks Mr. Staal!!!!!!!!!!

Ilya Bryzgalov

 Currently with the Philadelphia Flyers.

Fan letter sent: 3/19/12
Autographs received: 2/7/13
Ratio: 3/4
Duration: 323 days
Address: c/o Flyers skate zone


Just around about a year to received this one! Bryzgalov pretty much let the Flyers out of the playoffs last year because of shaky goaltending against the Devils! These cards are signed in blue sharpie marker. They turned a little bubbly and did not sign the fourth which was a 09-10 UD series 1. They were stuck together so i'm guessing that was the problem or   
 the gloss because back then i never un glossed my cards. But now i do so ow well still got Bryzgalov's graph in my collection! Thanks Mr. Bryzgalov!

Address: c/o San Francisco Bulls

Got autographs from pippy long stocking haha! I call him pippy long stocking because on a game versus the Canucks he got a penalty for no reason so he was really mad and got suspended. When he was going out to the locker room he ran like puppy long stocking would run. Well, anymore than less still got his autograph in 34 days. I was not expecting to get this back because he left for the sharks on Jan. 19th so i thought i would not get him back but i did so Thanks Mr. Clowe!!! He also signed two index cards!

Denis Potvin

Retired player.


Purchased from eBay.



When the islanders were dominating the NHL in the 1980s (four Stanley Cup titles). Potvin was right in the middle of it. When he retired, he left as the all-time leader among defensemen in goals and assists. This guy is probably my 2nd favorite player (right behind John Madden). Nice card signed in blue sharpie marker from the 19th best hockey player in the world!


Brent Sutter

Retried player.


Purchased from eBay.




The Center teamed with Mike Bossy and John Tonelli to form the famed "Canada Cup Line" for the islanders in the 1980s. The trio combined for 19 points in a 10/20/84 contest against the kings. Sutter signed this card in blue sharpie marker.
