I went to the 2008 evaluation camp for Team Canada here in Ottawa, and I got autographs from a lot of players after the camp. However, as with most of my treasured autographs, there is a story behind it. My dad and I had found out that an autograph session that we had planned to attend had already happened, and that players were headed towards Parliament Hill. We found out that the players wouldn't be signing autographs once they got to Parliament Hill. However, we saw Logan Couture, a player from the Ottawa 67s that we had met several times before. Mr. Couture was nice enough to pass around a team Canada jersey that I had with me, and
got the whole team to sign it! I will remember that forever. As a result, I have Taylor Hall's autograph twice on the same jersey. I met Mr. Hall later that year when he was playing for the Windsor Spitfires.
Wow! Lucky you. That jersey is now priceless. Good luck with the blog Haley!
