Tim Connolly

So my friend's sister plays hockey and recieved this card at her banquet. She didn't want it so he gave it to her brother. Her brother not being a hockey fan gave to me and I gladly accepted it into my autograph collection. It is the first card Connolly has signed for a company as stated on the back of the card.

Ted Lindsay Interview (Via TTM)

When I sent Ted Lindsay card to be signed, I added a few questions for Ted to answer and he kindly did and signed the page at the bottom. Here is our mini interview with Red Wings Legend, Ted Lindsay:
 
MJMB: What was your greatest hockey memory?
TL: Just to play for the greatest team there is.
 
MJMB: What was it like to play with Gordie Howe?
TL: I always thought and still do think he was the greatest.
 
MJMB: Out of the 4 Stanley Cups you won, which was the most memorable?
TL: The 1st was great, the 2nd one great great, the 3rd great, great, great the forth great, great, great, great. Josh there are so many wonderful things with each one.
 
Thanks again to Mr. Lindsay, this was extremally awesom and well appreciated. I can't wait to frame that interview!  

Ted Lindsay TTM



The other day I recieved a TTM from Red Wings Legend Ted Lindsay. I was very impressed that "Terrible Ted" did TTM and the speed of the return. The Autograph is clearly hand signed so it's even cooler. I only sent the card and Ted was kind enough to send the signed pamhlet also! He answered a few questons also and the interview will be posted next! Both signatures were inscribed with "HHOF '66."

Scotty Bowman TTM






 
 
The other day I recieved an awesome TTM. It came from the NHL's all-time winnigest coach, Scotty Bowman. This is an awesome TTM return as he signed all 6 items sent. He signed two pictures, both inscribed with "'HHOF '91" and the black picture also was inscribed with "12x Stanley Cup Champion" Bowman also kindly signed two cards and two index cards. Also in the letter I asked, "What are your thoughts on the firing of Lindy Ruff?" His response was short but very informing by saying "Not Pleased." Thanks Mr. Bowman!

John Scott

Last week  had the pleasure of meeting Sabres enforcer John Scott at Dave And Adam's Card World. He was very kind and signed this 8x10 for me. Hope to see him more on the ice the rest of this season.

Gary Bettman

The other day I recieved a signed picture from NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman. I sent this out over a year ago and barley remember sending it but still pretty cool to get it after the start of the shortened NHL season. Not a huge fan of him but his autograph still is a nice new addition.

Bucky Dent

So one of my mom's coworkers' uncle is former Yankee all-star Bucky Dent. Knowing I'm a huge Yankees fan, she had her son send me this back from Florida. It's a mini Louisville Slugger bat from his baseball school signed by the legend with the inscription "78 W.S. MVP" Dent is known for his homerun in the tiebreaker game in 78 against the Red Sox. He is a 3x All-Star and a 2x World Series Champion. Truly a legend!
