12/13/08: Toronto Marlies vs Syracuse Crunch

A quick trip back to Syracuse for the Toronto Marlies. I decided to try to get some of my new cards (that arrived days after the original Marlies game), as well as the couple guys I missed on cards and on the logo sheet. It was pretty successful, I think out of everything, I only missed 2 guys on the sheet. Not a bad deal at all. I also lucked out that Jonathan Sigalet, who is most likely out for the season for Syracuse, just happened to come by to talk to Alex Foster from Toronto, so I was able to get my remaining cards of him done also!

Cards:

Syracuse
Jonathan Sigalet - 2 (Including a nice game used of him)

Toronto
Jiri Tlusty - 3
Darryl Boyce - 1
Ben Ondrus - 1
Alex Foster - 1
Greg Gilbert (Coach) - 1
Boyd Devereaux - 1
Mark Bell - 1

12/12/08: WBS Penguins vs Syracuse Crunch

A special night at the Crunch game against the WBS Penguins (AHL affiliate of the Pittsburgh Penguins), as Mario Andretti was there to make an appearance and sign some autographs. A bit disappointing, as the line went very slowly, and my long search for a card came thru with about 2 minutes to spare. The sucky thing is that right in my other, easy box, I had a Mario Andretti Allen and Ginter card that I didn't realize he was in. So finding that the day after the signing was not a happy point! Other than that, not a bad autograph night at all, especially seeing Mike York leaving, as I was trying to get WBS guys.

Cards:

Syracuse
Mike York - 3

WBS
Ryan Stone - 2
Joey Mormina - 1
