J.P. Dumont

Sent on 12/19/09 and received 2/3 back on 1/16/10. This is the second return I have gotten from Mr. Dumont. Both have come back in great time. J.P. is a great NHL'er and makes all the players around him better. Not the prettiest autograph ever but an autograph is an autograph! Great stuff. Cards were mailed to the Predators.

Shane Doan

Sent on 6/25/09 and received 3/3 back on 1/14/10. Awesome return from an elite NHL player! Shane Doan is a hard-nosed leader with a ton of offensive ability. He's been a huge part of the turnaround in Phoenix and hopefully he will be in playoff contention for many years to come. Well worth the extended wait for these cards! Top notch return. Cards were mailed to his home.

Dustin Penner

Mailed on 11/2/09 and received 3/3 back on 1/13/10. Very surprised by this one! I had heard that the Oilers do not forward their fan mail to their players until the end of the season. I've seen Penner returns at the end of the season so that is when I expected to get this one back. The cards look great I'm very happy with these three cards. Dustin is an elite big player in the NHL. He puts up his great numbers year after year. Cards were mailed to the Oilers.

Jason Spezza

Mailed on 11/16/09 and received 3/3 back on 1/11/10. Awesome return from a solid star in the NHL. Year after year, Jason puts up huge numbers in one of the biggest hockey markets in the world. Very nice autograph, the Champs card looks amazing! Always nice when a returns makes the journey to Canada and back unharmed. Cards were mailed to the Senators.

Jason LaBarbera

Mailed on 10/26/09 and received 3/3 back on 1/8/10. Very nice return from an NHL goalie. Signatures are kind of hard to see on these cards, he did not use the best sharpie and the cards are kind of dark as well. He has a really nice looking signature though, nice and detailed looking autograph. A nice blue sharpie would really have made these autos pop haha. Very happy regardless. Cards were mailed to the Phoenix Coyotes.

Brian Rolston

I'm not sure when I mailed this one but I got 2/2 back on 1/8/10. I totally forgot I mailed this one, I was actually looking for some Rolston cards to mail out just the other day. I am glad that I got these back before I mailed off to Mr. Rolston again. My Victory set is slowly putting itself together nicely, a long way to go regardless though. These cards look awesome, bold blue signatures on both cards. Brian Rolston is a very underrated player and I'm glad he is a nice guy and signs TTM. Cards were mailed to his home.

Jim Campbell

Mailed on 12/28/09 and received 7/6 back on 1/6/10. Very nice return from a solid NHL player. Mr. Campbell could do it all on the ice and was a very underrated player. It was very nice of him to wish me a Happy New Year and sign the index card I used to protect the cards. So nice when a player takes the extra time to make a return a little bit nicer. Seven autographs in one envelope? I'm not complaining. Cards were mailed to Mr. Campbells home.

Semyon Varlamov

Mailed on 12/14/09 and received 1/1 back on 1/2/09. Awesome success from an up and coming goalie in the NHL. Semyon was having a great year with the Capitals before he went down with an injury. Hopefully he can heal soon and help the Caps and my fantasy team start winning again. Semyon has been a great signer TTM his season so anyone out there I strongly suggest you mail to him while he is signing! A young star will only get more and more mail as he gets older and more popular. I love the blue signature and I love the new Artifacts cards. Very happy. Cards were mailed to the Capitals practice facility.

Jon Klemm

Mailed on 12/19/09 and received 4/4 back on 1/2/10. I always love adding another Blackhawks to my collection and Mr. Klemm served the Hawks well in his time. I remember him playing on some of the real bad Hawks teams but he always played solid and did his role. A tough player who could do it all for a team. He is now working with the Spokane Chiefs and that is where I mailed this letter.

Kelly Chase

Mailed on 8/24/09 and received 5/3 back on 1/2/10. Very nice return from an elite tough guy in the NHL. Mr. Chase signed all of my items with care because the autographs look great. The index cards are nice because he didn't have to cramp his signature at all. I really appreciate Mr. Kelly taking the time for his fans. Cards were mailed to his home.
