Ай бұрын

We begin the show with the almost greatest NHL player to wear #90 (5:00). Then, we take a quick look at the Montreal Sports Card expo that Troy went to last Friday (16:52). Next is hobby news (37:02) followed by a segment where we take a look at some NHL players that have served their countries as today is Memorial Day in the US and we thought this would be a nice tie in (49:42). We then go to new product releases (1:03:43), followed by the Gongshow mailbag (1:09:54). We end the show with personal pickups, which are a bunch for Troy…and then Uncle Josh will sit by the fire and still us a tale of woe from a recent purchase he made (1:52:45).

There are direct flights from Minneapolis to Edmonton. The Edmonton Expo is once annually in either late April or early May. Strong monthly card show scene in Edmonton, plus its proximity to Red Deer that has a fall show means once a year is probably enough.

Hmmm....might have to check that out!

Great episode guys! My only disagreement is I wouldn’t blame just the “Joe Schmos” at PSA, I would blame the company and the way they train them. “You’re only as strong as your weakest link”. -Michael Scott -86Collectables

Found your channel recently and now I always look forward to new episodes. If you have to build a collection of a modern player that could only consist of 5 cards, what would you pick as the must haves? Say money is no object, but you can include one 1/1.

1:00:45 - Josh, I would love a summer side show where it's 2-3hrs of mostly hockey players who were/are vets and their stories. I hope Jeff Marek does this, he is co host of 32 Thoughts and his daily radio show. I love the hockey history and he's mentioned that would be his goal to retire to. Love love love hockey and history. Dan Carlin's Hardcore History, Daniele Bolleli's History On Fire too

Appreciate that. I think we'll try to regularly honor these people and highlight their cards too.

Most Rookie Limited Logos are NOT game worn. It's a very few of them that are game worn. Always read the back of the card. The only set that I know of that is ALWAYS game worn rookie is Premier Rookie Mega Patch (low numbered)

Montreal used to have Big card Shows at the Olympic Stadium in the 90s and in the 2000s and 2010s at Maurice Richard Arena. They used to be bigger than the current format, also the show isn't in Montreal it's in a suburb of Montreal, which is Laval.

@hockeycardsgongshow Ай бұрын

Shows at Olympic Stadium sounds like they would have been cool. Yes, Troy did mention the show was technically in Laval. Thanks for chiming in!

Love the Brent Burns! Found one at my last card show and immediately picked it up. Why not have game puck in cards these days?

@hockeycardsgongshow Ай бұрын

It's a great card for sure! I'm not sure why we don't see more game pucks in cards...

Don’t feel bad about your mistake Josh. Just a few weeks ago I was on whatnot about to buy a Future Watch Auto /999 from a seller. I looked at comps and it was selling consistently for about $50 and that’s what they were asking. Before I said yes, I went to eBay to see if I could get it cheaper. I saw 2 different ones for about $20 each and could not check out faster. It wasn’t until they both arrived I realized I bought the Future Watch non autos. They look the exact same and are also /999. I am probably the record sale for those cause comps are about $5 each on them besides my 2 purchases😂

Oh man....yeah it seems like we've all had our moments :)

@hanifteja5109 Ай бұрын

What would you consider a complete set in today's hockey card climate? Would that include all base cards, or would a set include parallels and base cards mix as well? The modern day of collecting is tricky, confusing, and expensive. Hanif from Vancouver

Great question we'll add it to our mailbag in next Monday's show!

To Josh Back in 2005 i bought a Pack of upper deck and pulled the Sidney Crosby YG. Well they were selling for $200 and at the time no YG had ever sold for that much. So I thought it was people way over paying for a maybe $20 card, Plus i didnt care for Crosby, So I sold it. Well you know its not a $20 or $200 card now. Who knew YG should be the hobby RC of choice...... I have another $$$$ story but is still up in the air depending on the Hockey Canada Court case.

Why wouldn’t you show 1 or 2 of your pickups? Is that bad form for a hockey podcaster to do (serious question)? Haha Lindros PTSD 😂

@hockeycardsgongshow Ай бұрын

I'm confused. Are you asking why I didn't show any of my pickups from the Montreal show? At 1:54:00 we go over my pickups and show them. Am I misunderstanding your question? Sorry, if I'm not I'm understanding what you are asking.
