Hey all,

I hope this is okay, as I'm having a hard time identifying one of the autographs in the picture below. I was lucky to attend a Leafs practice on March 23rd, and got the majority of the team to sign 2 jerseys of mine, and now I'm going back trying to correctly identify them all.

The one I'm having trouble with is the one to the left of the T in Toronto. The others I've identified as Bozak, Lupul, Remier, and Jay McClement.

Perhaps after my mystery is solved, we can make this a generic Autographs thread?

My guesses:
Phil Kessel (his autograph is pretty sloppy usually)
Frazer McLaren (the number below kinda looks like it could be a 38)

People it can't be:
Komarov (was injured and didn't skate)
Grabovski (didn't stop for autographs, just blew straight through)
Frattin (stopped, looked at us, but there were already 2-3 Leafs players there, so continued on, probably didn't want to stand there awkwardly)
O'Byrne (wasn't on the team yet)
Colbourne (was still on the Marlies at the time)

Left of the T? Clarke MacArthur? I think I see a 16.

Now that you say 16 I'm thinking it may be that as well. Also the signature seems to have a big circle-ish letter at the start, could work with the 'C' in Clark. Too small for me to get a really good look though, would need a closer up picture.

Yeah I just realized that Photobucket doesn't do a good job of keeping the original size of the picture.

I think you guys may be right, I may have Jay McClement and Clark MacArthur twice! (on both jerseys)

Here's one of the signature in question blown up

Here's one of the signatures I identified as Mac and Mc on the second jersey:

Pretty sure Clarke MacArthur is the winner, based on the way he does the loops at the end.

So the 3 players I didn't get autographs from that day were Ryan Hamilton, Frazer Mclaren, and Phil Kessel. I remember all three stopping, but I think between me having two jerseys, and trying to get some autographs for my dad's jersey I may have missed out on them.

Shame that, guess I'll have to try and get more. ;)

Based on these, it's gotta be C Mac. You can see he was trying to make a C but the marker messed up. You can barely see the curve for the C at the top.

I'm almost sure the one directly above the R and the O of "Toronto" is Reimer. The first letter looks like a "J" and it looks like it says 34

Ah sorry just saw that you figured that one out
