Brian Sutter In Person

 I attended the spring Sport Card and Memorabilia Expo in Toronto on the weekend.  They had all 6 of the Sutter brothers there.  I have various autographs of the other Sutters, but I needed to get my 01-02 Fleer Greats of the Game card of his, signed.  I am still working hard on this set.  He was super nice and in general, just seemed really genuine.




Logan Shaw TTM Success

 

Mailed:  1/30/2024
Received:  4/29/2024
Days:  90
c/o:  Toronto Marlies


I watched Logan Shaw play with the Belleville Senators and loved his hard play.  He has played 232 games in the NHL including 30 with the Canadiens.  He has been with the Toronto Marlies for the last 2 seasons.  Both of those were really good seasons points wise for him as well.  The Marlies were just bounced from the playoffs by his former AHL team, the Senators.  I would imagine the Maple Leafs will bring him in to at least practice with the team while they are still playing, in case they need a call up.

Jeffrey Viel TTM Success

 

Mailed:  1/2/2024
Received:  4/8/2024
Days:  97
c/o:  Manitoba Moose


Jeffrey Viel is a tough guy who can score.  He is in his first season with the Moose and has 34 points.  With the Moose out of the playoffs and the Jets looking really good to make a run, he will probably be a call up in case they need some added toughness in the lineup.  He autographed his 2 OPC rookie cards from 21-22.
