Hello Everyone!!!!!
Just wanted to stop in, and introduce myself here!
 My name is Troy, and I was invited to the site by George (bondsaway) as we met on another site where I am the hockey card moderator (not sure if I can name the site), and he thought I may like to give it a try. Looks good so far by the way!  I am a father of 3 girls, and my wife Linda and I, already have one grandson. As you can tell by my boardname, and signature, I am a huge Toronto Maple Leafs fan (please don't hold that against me  ), and also am probably the biggest Canadian Nascar fan going. I also enjoy watching, and playing golf, although I am way better at watching!  As far as collecting goes, I mainly collect certified out of pack autographs (Leafs especially Sundin, Rick Nash, Dany Heatley, and Joe Thornton), any/all nascar autos, and PGA/LPGA autos. I also have a huge Mcfarlane sportspicks collection, and spend a considerable amount of time on their spawn message board. I still have hundreds of nascar diecast, although I've stopped buying those. I enjoy spending time at my good friend's hockey memoribilia store here in Toronto called Frozen Pond. He has dozens of NHL signings every year, and he currently has scheduled Kari Lehtonen, Cam Ward, Ryan Smyth, Daniel Briere, the Sedin Twins, and many more I can't announce yet till they become firm deals. I have the luxury of spending time privately with these players upstairs while they sign the mail preorders etc. A few weeks ago I got to sit with Bobby Hull for an hour before he went downstairs to the public. How cool is that? Anyways, looking forward to doing some trades, and making some new friends. Talk to you all on the board! PS: I always offer cost plus shipping on the sites I belong to for anyone who'd like help getting an auto at these signings, so please ask if you need something! Lehtonen is on December 4th. Troy

Hiya George!  Trust me, there are times when I'd love to get rid of all three, plus the wife! As far as my first trade on TR being a boy for a girl. Would we have to use DC#'s, and insurance? Shipping from Canada on them would kill me, as 2 of them are full grown. Yah the hockey hookup I have at my buds place is amazing. Lately, I've got to hang with Gordie Howe, Mikka Kiprusoff, Dion Phaneuf, Frank Mahovlich, Alex Ovechkin, Simon Gagne, Domink Hasek, and a bunch more. I spent an hour of the Hasek signing talking to his agent, and driver, and they were telling me a bunch of stories (Hasek signing boobies in a bar etc ), and he was trying to score some booze for the ride back to the hotel downtown. Hope it wasn't for him, as he was driving! Thanks again for the invite. Looks great over here. Troy |

LMK if you ever need something from any of the signings. I usually take digital pics, and post them on spawn. I have an ongoing thread running on the sports board with all the signing info, and photos from the signings. If you guys want me to do a thread for the signings on here, I'd be glad to do it. Just LMK if it's okay, and where to post it! Here's a link from Gordie Howe, and Bobby Hull for your viewing pleasure!
