File this away

Most NHL teams use the first few preseason games to give journeymen players and prospects a chance to make a name for themselves before clubs whittle away at rosters.

This provides the perfect opportunity to snag autographs from players you might not see during the NHL's regular season.

I put that concept to work Friday, when Atlanta visited Hockey Bay for the Bolts' only home preseason game, with specialty cards from the 2008 AHL All Star set and Upper Deck's Rookie Class sets:

AHL All-Stars: Jason Krog and Drew MacIntyre
Rookie Class: Ondrej Pavelec and Boris Valabik
