Show and Tell: Drew Doughty TTM


I got this one back in August and took about 3 or 4 months. Cool big signature right in the middle of the card and it turned out nice. Doughty is considered one of the best defensemen in the league and he was a big part of Team Canada's gold medal win. Doughty signed 1/1 c/o Los Angeles Kings.

Wow! A success from one of the biggest names and biggest players in all of hockey. Mr. Chara signed my 8x10 and 4x6 2/2 c/o Home in about 5 months. I kind of thought this one was a goner, but I'm glad to get them back.

Bobby Orr FAILURE

I got this one on Christmas Eve and I was hoping he would give me a Christmas Present, but I guess not. This is my second failure from Mr. Orr and the only reason why I sent to him again was because my friend got a second success from him!

Show and Tell: Dustin Byfuglien TTM



I figured I would show some of my favorite returns I have gotten over the last couple of years before I started the blog. I got this one back during last year's Stanley Cup Final so it was a weird time for him to be signing, since he was playing in it! I sent this to the Blackhawks last year but my friend Joe got a success from Atlanta this year so you can send to him there. Byfuglien signed 2/2 including my 4x6.

Rod Brind'Amour TTM


Received 12/13/10

This is my second time sending to Brind'Amour and my second success from him as well. Now that he is retired, you'd think he would be faster, but it turns out, it took longer last season. The reason why I sent to him again was because one of the last cards I got from him turned out kind of crappy, so I sent this one to him instead. Took about 1 month and signed 1/1 c/o Home.

Tomas Plekanec TTM



Received 12/11/10

Great success from one of my favorite players from my second favorite team. Plekanec is kind of an underrated star in the NHL. He shows up big when he needs to and produces quality goals for the Habs. Tomas took about 3 weeks to sign 2/2 c/o Montreal Canadians

Claude Giroux TTM



Received 12/3/10

Great return from a great young NHL star! These 2 cards took about 1 month and they both look awesome! I really like the 2010/2011 Victory card. You can tell he took his time and signed it perfectly in the right spot. Giroux signed 2/2 c/o Philadelphia Flyers.

Johnny Bucyk TTM


Received 12/03/10

Great success from an NHL Hall of Famer! It took about 2 weeks and Mr. Bucyk signed 1/1. Bucyk was a great player for the bruins during their hay day, then again, anyone can look good playing with Bobby Orr and Phil Esposito. Great addition to my Parkhurst set! Card was sent to the Boston Bruins.

TOP TEN TTM's

I have been sending out TTM's for about 1 year know and easily have over 100 autographs through the mail. Here is a list of my 10 favorite TTM Autographs.

10) Jordan Staal- c/o Pittsburgh Penguins 2/2
One of my favorite returns from a current NHL player and one of the fastest. He signed a Winter Classic card and it is defiantly one of the coolest cards ever!

9) Joe Thornton- c/o Home 2/2
One of my all time favorite players in the game today signs 1 card and personalizes an 8x10 in under a month. This has to be one of my best returns ever!

8) Dave Andreychuk- c/o Home 2/2
2 cards from a Buffalo Sabres legend. Back in 04, Dave brought Lord Stanley to a bar in Buffalo where my uncle works. I was really young and he let me get a picture with him and the cup. Ever since then I have been a really big Andreychuk fan. This was defiantly one of my favorite successes.

7) Chris Pronger- c/o Home 2/2
One of the fastest returns I have ever gotten from a current NHL player and even NHL All-Star. 5 days for a 4x6 and 1 card.

6) Bobby Clarke- c/o Philadelphia Flyers 2/2
Not a very popular person if you are a Sabres fan, but it he is still a NHL Hall of Famer. He signed one of my cards perfectly.

5) Cam Neely- c/o Boston Bruins 2/2
One of my favorite returns of all time. Awesome success from a player in the HOF. I also liked him in one of the funniest movies of all time, Dumb and Dumber, as the role of Sea Bass.

4) Bobby Hull- c/o Chicago Blackhawks 2/2
One of my favorite players of all time. A NHL Hall of Famer who signed my card and 4x6 beautifully in blue sharpie.

3) Ted Lindsay- c/o Home 1/1
One of my first returns is one of my favorite returns. He signed the card beautifully in thin blue sharpie.

2) Steven Stamkos- c/o Tampa Bay Lightning 1/1
I have to say I got lucky on this one. I have never seen a success from him through the Lightning. One of the best players in the game today. It took all last season but it was definitely worth the wait.

1) Jean Beliveau- c/o Montreal Canadians 2/2
Perhaps my favorite player of all time, I get a personalized 8x10 and a signed card in couple of weeks! Thats why it's number 1!
