    It's Hard to be an Islander Fan

    I really like the direction the Islanders are headed. They have plenty of young talent and I think may just get into the playoffs next year. However, they have to do one thing first. BUY OUT DIPIETRO.... He absolutely stinks. I've watched thousands of NHL games in my 40+ years. Rick...

    Why Trade Wisniewski????

    I now believe Wang has told Snow to throw in the towel on the 2010-11 season already. Wang and his real estate and developing partners are not getting the go ahead for their Lighthouse project and Wang is cheaping out on the team to pressure the city. The Islanders weren't going to make the...

    UD Has Very Peculiar SP Tavares Autos

    While surfing the bay today I noticed that the John Tavares 9-10 UD SP Autos in the set have his wrong jersey number. I've viewed hundreds of his autos and never seen an autograph where he wrote down 19 instead of 91, while signing with UD. I know the autos UD is using on SP are stickers but...

    Some Nice JT Additions

    Well I can honestly say it's getting very challenging to be a completist now that Johnny is in the NHL and the UD SP's are selling for $400 to $800 in some cases. I have managed to add a few nice additions and am down to one 08-09 ITG UM9 Edition Tavares card to complete the set. I must...

    Several new Tavares additions to the PC

    I've finally had the opportunity to scan another 50+ Tavares cards into by photobucket and added another 10 more 1/1's. It's become more challenging to obtain certain cards as quick with the recent interest in Tavares. However, I've been fortunate to have members of HI help out. I want to...

    Where are the editors at Beckett?

    I'm not sure if there has been a thread on this subject already, but WOW!! I picked up the Beckett Hockey magazine for Dec / Jan 2010 and Tavares is on the front cover with a title DEAR JOHN. I'm reading the article written by Russ Cohen about Tavares, the Islander team, fans, hobby, hype...

    "beware" Ud Young Guns Damage

    I'm not sure if a post on this subject has been made alerting everyone to the roller marks up the middle of many of the UD Young Guns in Series 1. I found out today after I had purchased an 09-10 UD Tavares Young Gun RC. It was mentioned from several individuals at the Expo that about 60% of...

    The John Tavares Collection on the NHL Draft Day June 26th, 09

    Today John Tavares will finally be drafted to an NHL team. We know the Islanders have first pick but don't know if they'll choose him. I've followed Johns hockey career and collected his cards and memorabilia since he was drafted by the Oshawa Generals. He was drafted early when the OHL...

    Johnny T turning it on....

    John Tavares has turned on the jets since being traded to the London Knights. He has 13 goals and 7 assists in 7 games with London. He's leading the OHL in points with 74 and goals with 39 in 39 games. Unfortunately the 15 points he earned in the World Juniors is not included. It nice to...

    Yes.....I received my UD Redemptions

    Well, a story must go along with the pics. A few members on HI may know that I've never been a fan of the UD redemption programs. I had about 10 Nathan Horton redemptions a few years ago that I paid around 1K for on the secondary market. :crazy: I waited patiently for years in hopes these...
