    Not an entry.

    I no longer participate in the Card Show & Tell contest, for reasons I will not get into here, but for this "Best picture taken with an NHL'er" I will at least show a picture...only because of the story behind it. Plus RGM81 has done Notifications to prod me on this.

    My then 13 year old son Connor was diagnosed with a brain cancer tumor in November 2015. He had brain surgery to remove the egg sized tumor, had a port implanted in his chest for future chemo treatments, and was undergoing proton beam radiation treatments at the Mayo Clinic. In February 2016, he was just finishing his 30th and final proton beam radiation treatment when the Minnesota Wild called and asked if Connor would like to skate with Marco Scandella of the Wild during the Friday Night Family skate before the Sunday Outdoor Stadium Series Game with the Blackhawks. Marco's mom wasn't getting into town until Saturday, so he asked if one of the Children's Hospital kids could join him. Connor got the call. Connor had a few weeks off before his year long chemo treatments started, so the timing was good. Connor was weak and wobbly from the surgery and radiation, but really wanted to go, so we drove up to TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis and met up with the Wild and Marco. Marco was super nice and helped Connor navigate Connor around the rink. He gave him one of his sticks to help him balance better. He also made sure he got to meet every Wild player and have them sign his jersey. Marco gave us tickets to the Outdoor game as well. Connor and I sat next to his mom. Super nice lady. Connor and Marco have been buddies since. Marco surprised us on Mother's Day 2016 when he drove down to our house (about 70 miles away) to visit for a couple hours. They have also gotten together a few times when Marco was still with the Wild to play video games and go carting at Mall of America. Marco was traded to Buffalo, and is now with the Blues, but they still text and keep in touch to this day. Marco is pure class.

    Connor will be 19 in June and is now over 4 years cancer free!

    Video of a bald Connor revving up Marco's car on Mother's Day 2016 ...a sweet Nissan! Hope this works.



    Connor getting Marco's Hockey Fights Cancer warmup jersey on the scoreboard at a Wild game in November 2016. Again...hope this works.

    Thanks!

    Here's me, meeting my all time favorite: Bill Ranford. Was taken back in 2016, at a signing he did at AJ's in Toronto.


    Now that there's a second entry, you can all vote for @GabbyGuy :) Curt: Thanks for sharing. I remember reading about Connor's cancer years ago. I'm glad that he was able to recover. The pictures are awesome!

    I've met a few great players like Sakic, Brodeur and my favorite player Gary Roberts. I was so excited to meet Mr. Hockey a legend. I wore my Hartford hat and he loved it. Normally with the photo shoots you go get your photo and rushed out. But this time Mr. Howe wanted to have a full conversation so I chatted for as long as I could before I was pulled away by the event people. You don't give up an opportunity to chat with a great guy when he wants to talk with you.

    Back in 2013 when the sharks were in Montreal we were able to grab a reservation at the same restaurant they had their team dinner. (Larry Robinson was the assistant coach at the time and my mom used to work for his agent) We got to meet most of the team and since their bus was delayed, we got a few pictures and autos! My submission is the picture I took with my favorite player and the reason why I'm a sharks fan (my little brother is a huge sharks fan as well)
