Comments: Brindy is another one of those guys that can just keep it going. After the '08-'09 season, he has played 19 years in the NHL. That's an eternity when your getting your body beat up the way hockey players do. I'm amazed.

I'm really diggin' this card. I have a soft-spot in my heart for '91 Topps Hockey and this is a great photo of Rod. He's lookin' to be gettin' after it right about now. The lighting in the photo is a bit suspect, but that seemed to happen a lot in this set and others in the same period.

Comments: The thrid in a series of three cards that Brett Hull wrote all over for me. Aside the bleeding on the right end of the autograph, we are lookin' pretty good here. Overall, a pretty nice set of signatures - all on 1991 Topps - from a hockey great.

Comments: Sweet, more Hockey! Brett is my second hockey TTM return after good ol' Michel Goulet. Brett hooked me up with 3 autographs - all on 1991 Topps. A nice little trifecta for ya, so you better come back to see the rest.

Like I said before, I had one winter as a kid where I went nuts about hockey cards. This card, as well as the others I've gotten signed all came from that binge. Brett became a favorite too, and for good reason. He absolutely tore up the NHL during the 90-91 season, leading the lead in goals, getting an All Star nod and becoming only one of a handful of players to score 50 goals in 50 games or less. Not bad at all, Mr. Hull, not bad at all.
