Toys for Tots - Capitals

Jim and I made the annual trek to Prince Frederick, MD for the Car dealers event this is the 3 or 4 time we have gone to it and this was probably the most people that attended.  We got there a little after 9 am and we were 221 & 222 we had a friend who was 15th but he got there at 7:30AM for the Noon signings.  The event is you donate toys and you get a #'d wristband that is you spot in line which works nicely as we went for breakfast and went back.  We heard that they gave out at least 350 tickets for the 12-2PM signing it took us about an hour and a half to get thru so not to bad we thought we would get a lower number but was a good line-up with 3 2018 Stanley Cup winners Braden Holtby, Nicklas Backstrom & Devante Smith-Pelly, with them was also Karl Alzner & Craig Laughlin.  It takes a couple hours to get there from York PA but it's a good event for a great cause and 5 players signing makes it a good time.  I got a total of 13 autographs see below for a list of what I got signed and pictures the autographs and each of the signers.
  1. Braden Holtby - 2 8x10's one inscribed "The Save".
  2. Devante Smith-Pelly - 2 8x10's & an oversize Young Guns card.
  3. Nicklas Backstrom - 2 8x10's & A Card.
  4. Karl Alzner - 3 8x10's.
  5. Craig Laughlin - 2 8x10's.
