I haven't done an SnT on here for quite a while, I've been super active on Facebook for the past 6 or so months and have expanded my collection more than ever before. The following pickups were acquired various ways at various times but I do not believe I have shown on HI. I figured now is as good a time as any to show most of the more "significant" pickups! Sticking to the Big 3 Leafs for now with some a few others shown near the end. Without further ado, here are my top pickups of the past year.
I will save my Top 10 for the end!
Warning they are Leaf scan heavy!!

And my Top 10:
At 10 and 9, a pair of very Rare Marner Rookies that I personally love the design of (aside from the common condition flaws):
10) Mitch Marner UD Black Tru RC Auto /99 SP
UD Black RC Auto
9) Mitch Marner UD Black Auto Black and Blue /5
Scan11150 - Copy
At #8 an extremely hard to find Rookie Variant, while lacking an Auto it does have quite a uniqiue piece of memorabilia!
8) Mitch Marner The Cup Green RC Button /3
Scan11143 - Copy
For #7 and #6 they are a pair I picked up together, following the trend from above of Toronto Mega Patches, these two are not only incredibly hard to come by now, but they are some of the few game used cards from Matthews Rookie Year (Only his Mega Patches and Limited Logos being the other set that feature game used material)
6/7) Auston Matthews Premier Mega Patch Chest Logos x2 /25
Scan11211 - Copy
Scan11211
#5 is actually my most recent pickup, arrived only last week, and was on my wantlist for the past little while. Scooped it up at what I think was a very good price for a 9.5 and a crucial piece to any serious Marner PC.
5) Mitch Marner UD Ice RC /99 (MNT 9.5)
48387286_10218057983385595_9077936657436508160_n
#4 is from one of the newer The Cup subsets, but seems to be popular among everyone in its simple yet sleek design. A hard signed auto from the best player in the rookie class from The Cup is always a pleasure to have.
4) Auston Matthews The Cup The Show Auto
Scan11194 - Copy (3)
These next two cards share the 2nd and 3rd spot on my list of favorite pickups from 2018. Once I bought one of them, I knew I had to own the other.
I will always remember the Centennial Classic as one of my most memorable games to attend. Upper Deck has used patches from that game in a few different sets in the past three years, and personally I think these two cards are the most unique of them all.
I actually recall seeing one of these in the packout sheet for 16-17 Premier and imagined how cool it would be to own one, never did I imagine I'd get both.
Rookie Year, Game Worn, and immediately identifiable as to where it was used, arguably the top patch possible proudly displaying 'TORONTO' right in the center and the only two Leafs to have this jersey used in the set meaning that there are no others out there with these specific patches...
3) William Nylander Premier Mega Patch Commemorative Logos 4/5
Scan11208 - Copy
2) Mitch Marner Premier Mega Patch Commemorative Logos 4/5
Scan11210 - Copy (2)
The final pickup I have to show, a card that I really didn't ever seriously think I'd own until I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to actually make a deal for it. Long story short, the Centerpiece of my Mitch Marner Collection..
1) Mitch Marner The Cup Rookie Auto Patch /99
Marner Cup RC 99
I hope you all enjoyed the show, I hope to build even more on my Leaf Collection in 2019 as we are witnessing the best team that has been iced in our generation. It is an exciting time to be a Leaf fan, and a hockey fan in general. Happy Holidays, Happy Collecting and all the best in the New Year!!
