TTM Success: Ben Scrivens

  Ben Scrivens was to challenge for the back-up goalie spot on the Maple Leafs roster this season.  Instead he gets to be the starting goalie of the Toronto Marlies, the Maple Leafs AHL affiliate.  Scrivens had a great year with the Marlies last season, helping the team get to the Calder Cup finals.  I was on holidays in Toronto and got to see a play-off game live.  For under $50 a ticket, we got to sit 3 rows off the glass for a play-off game and I was able to take some great pictures.  That's what makes this return extra special.  The pictures Scrivens signed were ones I took.  The Marlies won that game, 3-0, and Scrivens was the first star.  Another cool think is that I have a ITG Between the Pipes auto card of Scrivens and his paid auto looks just the same as his ttm auto.  His auto is really just a big BS30 but he does it with flare.  He even dots the i in last name too.  One of my favourite returns to date.
