Marcus KrugerCurrently with the Chicago Blackhawks.
Autograph obtained in person on July 20, 2012.
I went to the 5th annual Chicago Blackhawks Convention last weekend with my girlfriend, and she got me this card signed by Marcus Kruger. Prior to joining the Blackhawks, Kruger played 3 seasons for Djurgardens IF Stockholm in the Swedish Elite League.
We did really well that weekend, getting over 20 different cards and photos signed.

Hey Sal,
I'd love to go one day to that Hawks convention. Curious how much tickets are, and how good is the opportunity to go and get autographs from the players?
Thanks!
Michael,
Tickets to the Blackhawks Convention were $70 this year. They have gone up $5 in price every year, so next year they will most likely be $75.
Opportunity for autographs was actually pretty good this year. They had a lot of players signing at the same time, and sometimes had 2 guys at the same table (so you'd wait for both of them). It is hard to get autographs of players like Bobby Hull, Stan Mikita, Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews--you only get those by a scratch-off game card they give you.
