Hi guys, I have been kind of lazy and have not scan and posted for a while. So I figured that no better time than my 800th post.
Here is the last 5 or so months worth of mail....Of course I will save the best for last....3 stars a little game used goodness at the end. Hope you will enjoy!
Let's start with some blank backs. Not too crazy about this year's retro version. Nothing can beat last year's. We have a Caputi, Niemi and twin Anisimovs
Next up are some random stuff.
O'Reilly Victory Black. I am glad they didn't make a gazillion of them like they did last year in the update set
Anisimov Artifact /50
Pavelec HP from fellow HI member. A little dinged up, but it's still good...it's still good...just a little dinged up...it's still good
Kostitsyn Beehive Matte Rc /25. It's pretty tough. A pretty goofy kid though
Voracek Ultimate auto rc /99
Matthias SPA auto patch...Nice teeth!
some leafs of tomorrow pickups
Bozak & Two Stalberg MVP Superscripts
Some Cup stuff
"Vintage" cup Andrew Ladd. My 3rd copy and not bad of a patch
Jimmy Howard Cup...from HI member Jimmy Saras in Sweden. A Jimmy card from Jimmy! Jimmeh!!
Jimmy's a good guy. He sent me some Swedish Victory to boot...
Clarkson auto rc
Pavelec...a pretty nice patch
Ben Maxwell...boring!
Nathan Gerbe, nice patch
Hornqvist
Matthias, Nice patch
Schneider, decent patch. Van's goalie of the future by 2017!!
Boedker, a bit of a disappointment in the AHL, decent patch
Voracek Gold
Now onto some PC Berglund Stuff
Berglund/Hornqvist MVP duo auto. Love this year's design
Berglund Fleer Ultra Fresh Ink. Pretty rare I guess
Berglund OPC auto. Case Hit
Onto the 3 stars
3rd Star
Not the most rare of cards but I like the patch and the auto. I have seen some real messy Berglund autos in the cup but this one is pretty nice and neat.
2nd Star
Nice cup Berglund auto plate! Again Nice auto
1st Star
Nice SPX Spectrum auto patch of Berglund. I love the 4 color patch (barely)
Finally, my ever game used stick from a big time stick collector. I saw this stick in his collection and inquired about it. He wanted more money than I was willing to pay (though he was trying to get back what he paid). In November he asked me if I was still interested and we hammered out a price that was far less than original. I want to thank Brian for working with me. He has an amazing collection, you can check it out at http://www.sureshotcollectibles.com/index.html
Here it is!!
Berglund Rookie year game used stick!! Certified by NHL Alumni as game used on April 10, 2009 vs CBJ and Auto'ed!
auto near the blade by Bergie
The stick has lots of wear and is pretty beat up which leads me to believe Berglund had used it for quite a few games.
Here is the photomatch to that game
and here is another picture of Berglund using the same/or similar stick
Hope you all enjoyed!
