Starting off the New Year with 4 new NHL player autographs. These new autographs raise the grand total of unique NHL player signatures to 7,071 for 89% of everyone to ever play in the league.
Don Sylvestri
A Clarkson University alumni, Don Sylvestri played 3 NHL games with the 1984-85 Boston Bruins. It was his only season of pro hockey.
Jyrki Seppa
Finnish defenseman Jyrki Seppa spent two seasons in North America, playing 13 NHL games with the 1983-84 Winnipeg Jets.
Jiri Bubla
Czech defenseman Jiri Bubla spent five seasons in the NHL with the Vancouver Canucks. He recorded 118 points in 256 career NHL games.
Bryan Rust
A two time Stanley Cup champion, Bryan Rust has been a member of the Pittsburgh Penguins since 2014-15. He's the very last autograph I needed to complete the 2014-15 year of debuts.

Bob Kilger
Bob Kilger had an interesting career. He played junior hockey with Bobby Orr, went on to become an NHL official, later became a Memorial Cup winning coach, member of the Canadian Parliament and finally, Mayor of Cornwall. His son, Chad, was also a well known NHLer. Sadly, Bob passed away just after this request came back.
Nice stuff as usual Jay!
