WORCESTER ICE CATS MASCOT FULL
Wikipedia says his current 4 year deal is worth over $11 million dollars.not too shabby for a former IceCat! Low had 4 full NHL seasons with the St. Didn't realize he had done that well for himself, but I'm very impressed. Salvador led the 97-98 IceCats in +/- and is another one of the most successful guy on this shirt, as he has 9 NHL seasons (610 games) under his belt and is currently on the roster of the New Jersey Devils. Right above Bartecko are #'s 8 (Bryce Salvador) and 37 (Reed Low).
Louis and Atlanta with 46 lifetime goals, and he's actually still playing in a league called the SEL. Bartecko spent 257 games in the NHL between St. Just to the left of Virtue is #19 Lubos Bartecko, one of my other favorite IceCats and one of the more successful guys on this shirt. Zabransky jumped straight from the Czech League to the NHL in 1996-97 (34 NHL games), before spending 2.5 years in Worcester for seasoning and then returning to the Czech League again. So first we start with the left back of the shirt:Īutos include Terry Virtue again (I did have him sign twice - he's to the left of "Wor."īelow Virtue are Libor Zabransky (5) and Terry Hollinger (4): I figure I'll analyze the autos by section to break things down easier.

I'd recognize his autograph anywhere, but for other guys it helps to be able to attach a number and a roster sheet ( example A, example B) to the squiggly cursive of most professional athletes. I also like that he signed his number with his name, as did most of his teammates as you'll see.

All autographs came from post game, some from the times 1-2 guys signed, but most from one event where 10-15 guys were signing all at once.
