This one was sent to me a few months ago via snail mail by
KC, of
Hockey Freaks, in exchange for a
Miikka Kiprusoff jersey card. Sure, it's a pretty uneven trade on all accounts (quality of player, monetary value), but he's a

fan and I'm a

fan - and I'm sure karma's pendulum will swing back my way eventually.
I didn't mention this card sooner because I already had
a post about Yann Danis in February, but with
news that he's going to the KHL next season, I thought it was timely to bring him back up. Oh, and he finished the 2009-10 season with a 2.05 GAA and a save % of .923 with the

In The Game complements my

I wish him the best of luck in the KHL - and a contract in the NHL for 2011-12.
