Jim Corsi

This card is very cool because of the story behind it. When I asked Mr. Corsi to sign the card he was plesently suprised by the fact he had a card. He had no idea until I asked him to sign the card, a card of him even existed! For those of you who don't know Jim Corsi, it's not that suprising. His NHL carrer was very brief as he also played for other European leagues. He is currently the Goalie Coach of the Buffalo Sabres.
James Corsi (born June 19, 1954 in Montreal, Quebec) is a former ice hockey goaltender.
