CARD OF THE DAY - 2013 ROOKIE ANTHOLOGY

After the end of the lockout shortened season, Panini released Rookie Anthology, a very sharp looking set with Sheldon in his Ducks jersey. There is also a Limited parallel numbered to only 5.

Card of the Day - 2013 Panini sticker

The latest sticker from Panini features Sheldon in his Dallas Stars uniform with the Anaheim Ducks logo in the corner to indicate his off-season signing with the Ducks.

Card of the Day - 2012-13 Score

The NHL lockout has cut down on the number of cards released this year, but here is Sheldon's first Anaheim Ducks card, the gold parallel of the 2012-13 Score set.

Memorabilia of the Month - Mighty Bean

While Souray was with the Canadiens, he was included in the NHL Mighty Beans set.

Magazine of the Month - NHL 2010 Yearbook

Sheldon graced the cover of the NHL 2010 Yearbook with Iginla, whose dirty hit that season left Sheldon on the IR list with a concussion - ironic?

Magazine of the Month - The Hockey News Sept. 2007

Back when The Hockey News was still square and printed on newsprint (September 2007), Souray graced the cover when he joined the Oilers.

Card of the Day - 2012 OPC

Souray's first cards of the 2012-13 season are from Upper Deck's O-Pee-Chee set, which includes a regular and retro version, as well as parallels including black and rainbow.

Memorabilia of the Month - Autographed Game-Used Stick

I purchased this autographed, game-used stick from Souray's 2008-09 season at the Oilers Annual Locker Room Sale. I added a blue slip-on tape replacement at the butt end (because there wasn't any tape there and it looked unfinished, but this is easily removed) and an engraved plaque with details about the stick. It is one of my favorite pieces.

Card of the Day - 2011 Razor's Choice Award

The 2011-12 Crown Royale Razor's Choice Award card features a die-cut shape, metallic background, embossing, and is serial numbered to 99.

Magazine of the Month - 2007-08 THN Yearbook

Souray was on the Northern Alberta cover of the 2007-08 The Hockey News Yearbook. He was kind enough to autograph the cover for me a few years ago, although the glossy cover wasn't ideal for signing.

Card of the Day - Canadiens team-issued

Sorry for the poor scan - I've got this Montreal Canadiens team-issued, over-sized card in a frame, since it's autographed by Sheldon.

Memorabilia of the Month - Oilers poster

Sheldon was kind enough to autograph this poster for me a few years ago. I framed it in a blue frame with a matte that I custom painted to match the stripes on the Oilers' socks and jerseys.
