Milan Hejduk Jersey Card

Pulled from a pack of 2011-12 Upper Deck Artifacts April 29, 2012.

Matt Duchene

Fan letter sent December 18, 2010.
1/1 autographed card received September 8, 2011.

Approx. nine-month turnaround for the Third Overall selection in 2009.  Duchene has already proven that he belongs in the NHL, improving 12 points from his rookie season in his sophomore campaign.  You hate to see a team like the Av's stumble the very next year after clinching a playoff spot and making everyone in the NHL think that the former stud of a franchise was on the rebound, but it happens to the best of them I guess.  Didn't really keep up with the Av's last year.  Letter and card sent to the Pepsi Center in Denver, CO.

Milan Hejduk

Currently with the Colorado Avalanche.
Fan letter sent November 24, 2010.
3/3 autographed cards received December 27, 2010.
I honestly wasn't expecting these to come back signed, mainly because of the results that Sal got from the Colorado Avalanche.  However, after looking at some other autographs of Hejduk around the Internet, I'm not so sure that this isn't ghost-signed.  Can anyone tell if these are authentic or not?

Joe Sakic

Acquired through NHL Auctions.
Joe Sakic retired in 2009 after 20 seasons with the Quebec Nordiques/Colorado Avalanche franchise.  He scored 625 goals and 1,016 assists and won two Stanley Cups in Colorado in 1996 and 2001, winning the Conn Smythe Trophy in '96 after a phenomenal playoff year with 18 goals and 16 assists in 22 playoff games.  He also won the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy, Lester B. Pearson Award, and Hart Memorial Trophy as NHL MVP in 2001.  Sakic was also a 12-time NHL All-Star.

St. Patrick

Well, this one I got through Frameworth Sports Marketing. It's one of the three goaltenders' autographs I have, and shows Patrick Roy celebrating his 448th career victory. I have since seen the game that Martin Brodeur won to pass Roy (victory #552), which was actually not his best game he has played, in which he won 3-2 I believe but gave up a goal late to make it more of an exciting game nonetheless. I'll try to get better pictures (I took these with my phone).
