rookie has only played 28 games in the NHL, but the Jacob McQuaide Jersey 2015 No. 1 pick is undeniably living up to the hype in his injury-shortened rookie season. Thats made him a pretty popular guy and the owner of one of the most sought after autographs in the league.Apparently some fans are going to great lengths to make sure they get their McDavid memorabilia sign. Take, Tyler Higbee Jersey for instance, what happened in Philadelphia as the Oilers were preparing to leave Wells Fargo Center after their morning skate Thursday.There was about a 20-foot drop and a large security fence between a pair of fans and some building guards to deal with, but when the going gets tough, the tough get creative. The undeterred fans had come prepared for just such a gap between him and the person whose autograph he desperately wanted.Using some string, a hanger and the real genius of Lance Dunbar Jersey this whole set up a clip board for the poster to get signed, the jersey was lowered where McDavid could reach it. The understated rookie signed it and quickly got the heck out of there.Meanwhile, filming from the bus was Gene Principe of Sportsnet to capture the crafty autograph seekers in action. Towards the end of the video, someone in the background remarks, "Next rink, there'll be drones."Apparently some fans (po sibly these very same ones) from NBA star Steph Curry Todd Gurley Jersey of the Golden State Warriors. So youve got to be a certain level of famous to have fans come out and go to such lengths to get your John Hancock. Apparently young McDavid is already there."That was one of the more creative ways to get an autograph Ive seen," .McDavid and the Oilers take on the at 7 p.m. ET Thursday night. You may recall the last time McDavid played against Philadelphia, he didnt finish the game after he crashed into the boards and suffered the broken clavicle that cost him Nickell Robey-Coleman Jersey nearly three months of the season.At least theyre making him feel welcome in his first trip to Philly.
