Even though neither won a game when Tampa Bay opened its 2008-09 campaign with a pair of games in Prague, these pucks from Lightning goalies Olaf Kolzig, left, and Mike Smith make for a couple of keepers (yes, folks, the pun is most certainly intended) for the collection.

The Kolzig puck, the 500th autograph of Hound Central's 2008-09 campaign, was among the six items that Colin allowed me to get signed Wednesday. Yes, I feel guilty about it.
