Hey all,

Like everyone else I am stuck inside and decided to catalog some various things I haven't yet including some various group break hits, various mail, and my "Expo Pickups" aka stuff Gene (Blueknight91) picked up for me while he was there/I acquired via trade with him.


Starting with some group break hits, I join these frequently, a lot of the time with Buffalo, sometimes Colorado this year if I'm feeling brave, and then I randomly pick teams that end up cheap or sometimes I'm just a glutton for punishment (thanks Ducks & Jets).


I'm in a monthly break where you get one picked team and one drafted team, few months ago I drafted the Devils and got this one out of Engrained:


Honorary Engravings /100 - 93/94 Calder Trophy - Martin Brodeur





Next, various Colorado hits:

Cale Makar Trilogy RC /499
Cale Makar YG
Conor Timmins YG Canvas
Mikko Rantanen Clearcut
Nazem Kadri Blue Border
Nathan Mackinnon Authentic Moments






Buffalo from a Trilogy case:

Olofsson RC /999
Olofsson RC Auto /399
Olofsson Rookie Renditions





And probably one of the best cards I've hit in a group break in quite some time. I randomly took Detroit in a mixer on Facebook (not really sure why but I did) and I ended up with this. Even though it's a redemption, a sick hit for myself.

90/91 Tribute Auto - Steve Yzerman





Now onto my "Expo Pickups" which are things that were acquired for me in Toronto way back in the fall. Ended up with some cool stuff considering I wasn't there :laugh:



Rasmus Dahlin OPC Glossy RC & SP Rookie Authentic /1199





Rasmus Dahlin Foil YG




Rasmus Dahlin OPC Platinum Black NHL Shield






Jack Eichel 18/19 SPGU Patch /10





Mikko Rantanen 18/19 SPA Limited Auto





Mikko Rantanen Future Watch Auto BGS 9





Paul Stastny 11/12 Prime Colors /22





Cal Clutterbuck19/20 UD High Gloss /10





That's it for the pickups. Special thanks to Gene for always looking out for me and hooking me up. :beer:



And now for some various recent mail that has come in. A lot of low numbered goodness here.



First a few non-numbered pickups:


Cal Clutterbuck 19/20 UD Clearcut




Cal Clutterbuck 19/20 OPC Red Blank Back & Blue Border




Another Cal pickup:


10/11 Gifted Grinders Yellow Printing Plate 1/1





Next a couple low numbered Eichel's:


18/19 SPx Spectrum /9





19/20 Overtime Clappers Blue /10






Next a bit of a random pickup but grabbed it because I'm a sucker for Black & Red Sabres pieces and Chris Drury. Even though it's technically a Rangers card, the swatches are awesome Sabres pieces. That's a 4 color jersey piece for those counting at home.

08/09 SPGU Significant Swatches Jersey/Patch /10





And to finish it off, the rare occurrence of new Stempniak's! With him being retired and the wantlist small, the new pickup is few and far between these days. However, with buybacks being inserted into Series 2 I was hopeful I could find at least one of them. So I've been lucky to get these:



08/09 Upper Deck Base Buyback 1/1






11/12 Upper Deck Base Buyback 1/1





I'm happy that I've been able to find and acquire 2 of these so far. Here's hoping I can find some more. If anyone happens to see these pop up, please shoot me a message so I can try to grab them. I'm not having as much luck (despite great gestures from members here) grabbing any Clutterbuck's.


So that concludes my S&T for now, hope you enjoyed the show and randomness within. I have a large COMC box to go through so some more threads may be in the near future.


Thanks for looking, comments appreciated as always!
 
Oh man, sweet pickups! Congrats on snagging those Clutterbuck's, especially that older 1/1 plate. Those always feel good to snag so far after the release.

Speaking of 1/1's, those Stempniak BuyBacks are nice pickups. Even though they're just stamped base, I really like the look of these 30th Anniversary BuyBacks and I'm hoping to pickup a few for my collection also.

If you think snagging that plate is good, wait until I post one of my other new things. Also I completely agree on the buybacks.
