Mailed out: April 17, 2014
Returned: March 6, 2014
c/o P.O Box return #17
Excited to find this little envelope in the box today as Bernie is one of my favourite players! Drafted in the 4th round Bernie wasn't expected to be the offensive threat he became with the Kings. His numbers exploded one Gretzky was brought in, scoring 70 goals and adding in 80 apples for 150 points in 79 games in 88/89. The next season the Kings made a push for the cup, they traded Nicholls away to the Rangers. He floated around the league after that, and his numbers never got to where they were when Gretzky was on his line but his leadership and willingness to adapt to coaches systems made him a key player. In 2012 he rejoined the Kings as a coaching consultant, they won the cup that season. I offered for him to keep the Rangers cards, he signed all of them.
