Awesome Authentics No. 10

No. 10: 2005-06 Upper Deck Be A Player Double Jason Spezza-Eric Staal (D-JE)
Beckett price range – $12-30 *

Two of my favorite younger players in the NHL. I certainly hope they both have long, prosperous careers and live up the the hype. The value of our collections depends upon it.

That's not to say, though, that either player is inaccessible. Spezza has been very generous in person, signing at least two items. He also signed the 500th puck of my collection. Staal, too, was very gracious in his lockout-induced stint in Lowell, Mass.
