Gary Nylund

Mailed out:September 15, 2014
Retuned: December 8, 2014

Drafted 3rd overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1982, Gary Nylund is best known for being the first NHL player to change teams via free agency, when he signed with the Blackhawks in 1986. I mailed him his 91 92 O Pee Chee card for my set, Nylund switched it out with 3 other cards that beautifully show him with the three teams he played for throughout his career. Today Nylund is a firefighter in British Columbia, as well as a part owner of the BCHLs Surrey Eagles.
