Buffalo Sabres Development Camp Pick-Ups





Today, I went to Niagara University for the annual Sabres Development Camp. It's a really good place to pick up autographs because everybody signs. Today was a scrimmage between the grey team that featured Tyler Ennis and Luke Adam and the white team that featured Marcus Folligno (who's pap was in attendance today, talked to him for a little bit). At the end of the game there was a shootout and after that the players all came out to sign autographs. I got 4x6's signed by Tyler Ennis, Luke Adam and Zack Kassian. I came in with three things to get signed and left with three signed things so all in all, it was a good day, plus I got to talk with Sabres and hockey legend too. Not bad for a free event. I'll say Ennis is my first Buffalo Sabre 4x6 for 2011 since it looks like Mike Grier is going to hang em' up. Sorry about the lack of po ts lately, mail has been slow and I haven't sent much out. I just got some Canadian stamps in the mail today so I will defintly send some stuff out.

What a Day

Free Agent Frenzy!! It seemed like everybody signed today except Brad Richards. The day kicked off by the Blue Jackets signed former Hab James Wisniewski. Completely over paid but still a good pick up. The Florida Panthers picked up like 100 players icluding Ed Jovanovski, Jose Theodore and Kris Versteeg. The big news coming out of Philadelphia, PA where Max Talbot and Jaromir Jagr signed. I will only root for him if he grows back the mullet. After hearing we were out of the running for Brad Richards, I didn't think we were going to do anything but we signed former Flyer Villie Leino. We defiantly over paid him but what are you gonna do. I hated him in the playoffs especially after game 6. Colorado signed Seymon Varlamov which was a good pick up after letting go Peter Budaj. I think Richards will either sign with the Rangers or LA. I've had NHL Network and my twitter on all day. Thanks to Lindy Ruff's tie for and Leopolds iPod following me @markopolo209!

On the TTM side of things, if anybody knows any offseason addresses for current players I would highly appreciate it if you emailed them to me at rbmarko20@yahoo.com. I'm trying to get some mail out this summer. Thanks
