Just a fluke, Anthony. Like I've stated, Ty is a local boy to me and because Jason is having such a great year, I decided to grab some of his up too.

I've also grabbed some Tage Thompson cards lately as well as he is also having a great season. Another hatty last night with a helper, which currently puts him tied for 3rd overall with Jason Robertson in points.
I grabbed a Stamkos RC the other night too but it is not in hand yet.
I may have a problem?

Big win for Canada at the World Juniors last night. The U.S. had me worried, as they always do, but Canada came back from a 2-0 deficit to prevail with a 6-2 win.
Anyone watching this Connor Bedard kid? Unbelievable talent and only 17 yrs old. Smashing long standing records and still another game to play.
Never have I seen pre-rookies selling for the money they are currently going for, and the kid isn't even drafted yet.

A couple new additions. I got caught up in the Connor Bedard hype but rightly so, imo, so I decided to grab one of his Team Canada cards.
I have also wanted a Luc Robitaille card for a while now but could never find a nicely centered one on the cheap until just recently. Truthfully, I think this one is gradable?

A couple more newer/modern cards I decided to grab last month.
I tell myself I need to thin out my collection but I guess I'm not very good at that?

Great looking cards, Anthony.
Ron Francis's card is criminally underrated. Top 100 player of all time and they can still be had fairly cheap.

Ronald Michael Francis Jr. (born March 1, 1963) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey centre. He is the general manager of the Seattle Kraken that inaugurated its first season in 2021. Drafted fourth overall in the 1981 NHL Entry Draft, Francis played 23 seasons in the NHL for the Hartford Whalers, Pittsburgh Penguins, Carolina Hurricanes, and Toronto Maple Leafs. Upon retiring from professional ice hockey in 2004, Francis stood second all-time in career assists (1,249), behind only Wayne Gretzky; fifth in career points (1,798); third in games played (1,731); and 27th in career goals (549).

In 2017, Francis was named one of the hundred greatest NHL players in history.
