BLAKE DUNLOP and MICHAEL PETIT
The two former NHL players sign their names in blue felt tip
Signature: "Blake Dunlop" on front and "Michael Petit" on verso, both in blue felt tip, 3x5. Blake Dunlop (b. 1953) is a retired NHL forward whose career lasted 10 seasons; he played for the Minnesota North Stars (1973-1977), the Philadelphia Flyers (1977-1979), the St. Louis Blues (1979-1984), and the Detroit Red Wings (1983-1984). After an impressive college career in Ottawa, Dunlop was drafted in the 2nd round, 18th overall in the 1973 NHL Amateur Draft. Unable to match the high scoring momentum he had displayed in college, Dunlop mostly played in the AHL, only occasionally being brought up to the NHL. Over 10 seasons, he played in 550 NHL games, scoring 130 goals, recording 274 assists, and racking up 404 penalty minutes. He was awarded the Les Cunningham Award as the AHL's 1978 MVP, as well as the Bill Masterton Trophy in 1981. Michael Petit (b. 1964) is a retired NHL defenseman who, during his 16-season long career, played for a then-record 10 different teams; these teams included the Vancouver Canucks (1982-1988), the New York Rangers (1987-1989), the Los Angeles Kings (1994-1996), and the Philadelphia Flyers (1996-1997). Chosen 11th overall in the 1983 NHL draft, the large defenseman struggled to perform in Vancouver, and it wasn't until his time in New York that he really became a solid competitor. In 827 NHL games Petit earned 90 goals and 238 assists. After retiring in 2001, Petit worked his way up to become the Director of Hockey Operations for the Mercer Chiefs AAA Ice Hockey Club. Heavily toned along top margin of front and verso. Slight stain on front side of top margin. Ink on front and verso shows through to the opposite sides. Otherwise, fine condition.
