I second this Doug....and considering your childhood was soooooooo long ago that makes it that much more AMAZING!! :laugh:

The Havlat/Savard does look pretty awesome. I think I gave you way too good of a deal in trade on that one! :dizzy:

Ryan,
Age is only a number, but sometimes I wish that number would go in reverse :laugh:

And the great deal is appreciated :beer:

 

[The Big M]

Hey Doug... wait until Ryan is our age... it'll be OUR turn
Unfortunately, trading nights don't give us the opportunity to see each other's collections, so thanks for the show.
Great pickups.

Michael.

Nice grabs all around. I look forward to some of your Kane and Toews patchy goodies in the near future.
