Okay, we all know Wayner couldn't make the cut due to UD contractual obligations...

But it appears that Gordie is also a Western no show...

But we get Yzerman, sans autos for some reason, at least to date.

Orr is oddly missing from the East product list as well.

Anyone know why Gordie and Bobby are strangely missing?

Cory, someone told me that Bobby started his own company for selling his autographs and that he was not going to be signing cards for ANYONE any longer. I don't know if its true or not, but if it is, his auto cards should start to climb in value....

Rod.
 
Speculation only:
1) ITG states clearly that they add autos to the list as they're received back. Possibly they fully intend Yzerman to be in there as an auto, but just don't have them back yet.

2) Orr's absence is a mystery, but perhaps their deal with him has expired and Mr. Orr hasn't renewed it as yet? Also, it's a preliminary list - so it's possible that once they renew the deal, he'll be in.

Less speculative:
3) Howe's rights are still owned by UD.
 
Ok, brief natters with ITG folks confirm:
1) Howe's still locked up by UD.
2) Yzerman has autos and memorabilia in US West. They just haven't updated the checklists yet.
3) They can't confirm Orr yet for east.
 
*Drooling at the US East Flyers cards*
I knew there was a reason I didn't get into the Canadian or US West cards... Most of my favourite old-timers are in the East release.

I'm liking the Checklist for me! ;)

441 Murphy, Larry WASH
442 Mason, Bob WASH
443 Labre, Yvon WASH
444 Maruk, Dennis WASH
445 Hunter, Dale WASH
446 Iafrate, Al WASH
447 Langway, Rod WASH
448 Walter, Ryan WASH
449 Carey, Jim WASH
450 Beaupre, Don WASH

So hopefully only 20 cards to grab. Base & Auto. Here's hoping that there aren't too many GU'ed to pick up! :eek:

Oh yea! Thanks for the links! :cool:
