Threads: Ilya Kovalchuk

Of all the cards that have been added to the Threads project this hockey-hounding campaign, it's safe to say that this one from Atlanta's Ilya Kovalchuk is the nicest one -- so far. Sweet burgundy swatch and a pretty solid signature, too.

The card, which Colin specifically asked Kovie to sign before Atlanta's game against Tampa Bay, is from 2008-09 Upper Deck Hockey Series I.
