I remember Gordie Howe saying, he made sure to sign an autograph so people could read who signed it. That man was so humble and cared about people. I wish more people followed his lead. #greatman

I got a beef with the autographs of players today. People are paying large sums of money for these signatures… so why can’t the players take a few extra seconds and make it legible? I’ve got a few Gordie Howe’s from the late 1960s they’re awesome. The skate sharpener for the team was my dad’s buddy and when dad had a heart attack the guy got the entire team to sign a yearbook and wish him a speedy recovery. It was pretty cool and nearly every player signed it and all were readable. True story- no joke. You didn’t need a number tacked on to know who signed it- because you could read the name.
Writing your name so others can read it- it’s not rocket science. I know these guys are busy people but just take an extra second or two to make it readable for the guy who is playing $30+ for that picture. That’s my bitching for today so I’ll get down off my soapbox now.

Just one autograph and it’s Niklas Kronwall.
