Patrick Roy IP

Tonight was the presentation of the 2007-08 edition of the Quebec Remparts at Place Laurier in Quebec City, QC. There was also a free autograph signing session with the whole team afterwards. The only player missing was Angelo Esposito, since he's still playing with the Pittsburgh Penguins (for now at least!)... So I got the sheet that they were handing out signed by all the rest of the team including Patrick Roy! He also signed these 2 cards for me:

Wow! Two in-person successes in two days! :o)

Today there was a free autograph signing session with Alexander Ovechkin (!!!) at a store called Hockey Experts, in Saint-Romuald (15 minutes from where I live). I got him to sign these 2 cards and this 8" X 10" print that they were handing out:

Cristobal Huet IP

There was a free autograph signing session earlier today with Cristobal Huet. It was held at l'Entrepôt du Hockey, 5 minutes from where I live, in Quebec City, so I went. Got him to sign a poster (which was given out) and these 2 cards :

Since the card he signed for me last month was badly creased, I asked him if he wouldn't mind signing another for me and he did! His signature looks a lot more rushed on this one, but at least the card is not folded in 2! :o)
