Thinks it's great!
Greetings! My name is Mike and this is my Hockey collection. I grew up in the hockey hotbed of Buffalo, New York and was steeped in the sport from the day I was born. My Dad played goalie for the Buffalo Fire Department and some other teams and had my brother and I on skates by age 4. We always went to the Sabres games in the old Aud and my folks were even the presidents of the Sabres Booster Club when they first came into the league. I played organized hockey from the time I was five as a Buffalo Regal through high school (Buffalo Traditional School HHOF '84: First Inductee!) to Junior hockey with the Lockport/Southtowns Wolves and Cheektowaga Warriors. I still play to this day with the greatest team in Beer League Hockey the "Liberty Tax Collectors" in Virginia. I am known as the Stormtrooper because of my all white uniform. Helmet, jersey, socks, and custom all white Flarrow gloves.

I started collecting about 10 years ago with autographed pictures and other memorabilia. I then got the fever to collect game worn jerseys (gamers) in about 1999 and am still going strong. My collection consists of about 90 gamers and more than 75 autographed pictures. I hope you enjoy the site and please feel free to contact me with your comments or suggestions.

CHAMPS!!
