Oh Canada...

Today's mail was much similar to yesterday. I received one card in the mail, and that card is from a hockey player, and its also for my set. I can never complain when I get a card for my set back in the mail. The card was returned from Canada in pretty quick fashion.

Steve Shutt
2001 Fleer Greats of the Game
Shutt was drafted by Montreal of the NHL for the 1972–73 season. In 1976–77, Shutt was a key member of the Canadiens team that compiled the best regular season record in league history, losing only 8 games during an 80-game schedule. Partnered with Jacques Lemaire and Guy Lafleur to form the top line in the NHL, Shutt scored 60 goals, a league record for left wingers that stood until the 1992–93 season when Luc Robitaille scored 63 goals, a record that has since been broken by Alexander Ovechkin 65 goals in the 2007-08 season. During his career with Montreal, he was named to the NHL First All-Star team in 1977, and the NHL Second All-Star team in 1978 and 1980.

I believe that puts me at 27/87 for the set. Each day I get a little closer.
