Serge Savard was at the Sportcard Expo in Toronto and I needed his autograph for my 01-02 Fleer Greats of the Game Set. I am down to the nitty gritty now on that set and it is getting very difficult to find any that I need. I used to stay at Serge's hotel in Montreal near the Bell Centre. I believe he sold the hotel now though. He was a great defenceman that won 7 Stanley Cups with the Montreal Canadiens.
The Sportcard Expo never fails to have a great lineup of autograph guests. I needed Frank for my 01-02 Fleer Greats of the Game set that I am trying to get fully autographed. I will note this though, if you get an autograph at the Expo, purchase the fast pass. Frank and his brother Pete were there with AJs Sports. I did not buy a fast pass as I thought I would be out of there in under an hour, but that was a huge mistake. They obviously did not cap the amount of fast passes purchased. I waited in the line for over 2 hours before even moving 1 step. At any rate, I got Frank only as I had gotten Pete back in 2009 at the NHL All-Star Fanfest in Montreal. They were both very chatty with the fans which is always amazing to see. I was glad to add this to my set.
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.
