Why go after this autograph: The Blackhawks are one of the teams I follow and I always try and get the goaltenders autographs.  Even though the Blackhawks have a co-goaltender situation, I still like Huet.  He has never walked into a situation where he was just outright given the keys to the starter since his days in Montreal.  He is actually a fairly good goaltender, currently he is 16-10 on the season.  If given a full season and no one chasing behind him, he’s at least a 30 game winner. Anyhow he is one of those autographs I always wanted so it was cool to see him sign in a little over a month.

Any Current Certified Autographs Available: There are quite a few of his autographs on eBay, most are running in the $1 – $10 range.  I’ve kind of seen it all over the place as far as price goes, some are nearly $100.  Since he is a goaltender there is a bit of a premium on his signature.
