Verified Trader,
Figured I would join in on the top 10 lists on here. Already shared my game worn jerseys I picked up this year. Post can be found here..

Anyways, here are four of my top 10 lists broken down by random cards (sets or small PC's), Team Canada collection, Turco Cup cards and random Turco cards. None of them will be in any sort of order.
Will start off with my Team Canada collection. I only went with lower numbered cards on this list, not including any of my autograph patch cards /199, or /25 from the womens/juniors sets. I had a great year in adding unique patch cards to that collection, maybe I will do an updated show and tell of that collection on it's own.
First up are random cards for sets, smaller player collections and just completely random pickups...

One of my all time favorite sets was 00-01 SPGU. I have since decided to chase down the patch cards from this set. I am upto 3 dual patches and 3 single patches from the set...
random 8 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
First of a couple random Hellebuyck pickups. Don't collect him but liked both cards...
random 7 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
The other Helley
random 6 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
Black is one of my all time favorite products. I've been picking up a lot of random goalie cards from various black products over the years. This one was a must have...
random 5 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
First of a few Hawerchuk cards I picked up this year. Started a collection of his hard signed stuff...
random 4 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
Another Hawerchuk this time with Selanne.
random 3 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
This was my most wanted Hawerchuk. Took 3 tries to finally get one after two not arriving through ebay purchases..
random 2 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
A beautiful Comrie card for my small Comrie PC
random 1 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
A really nice Lalime that was high on my Lalime Penguins wantlist. Down to only a couple cards of his to have the run of his Pens cards.
Next up is my top 10 Team Canada pickups. I have decided to collect cards featuring players from the 2010 team that were inside the Master Collection. Mainly patch cards. I also pickup any and all goalie patch cards from the Womens/Juniors products.

canada 2 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
My lone Maple Leaf Forever pickup from this past year. Hands down my favorite subset from the Canada sets. I mainly go for cards with swatches from the sleeve patch on the Canada jerseys. So these are perfect for the PC.
canada 3 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
A beautiful triple patch from the Master Collection
canada 4 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
A rare addition to my 2012 (or whatever year) Master Collection collection. Only my second Sakic from that product.
canada 5 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
This one speaks for itself... Patch card from a 2010 gold medal team member and the swatch from beneath the chest logo on one of the 2010 jerseys.
canada 6 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
A beautiful dual jersey auto for the Team Canada goalie collection...
canada 7 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
Hands down my favorite card from the past year. I've been after one of these forever....
canada 8 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
Just recently started picking up The Cup Programme of Excellence autos featuring goalies on the cards. This was my first dual not featuring Turco.
canada 9 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
A triple auto from Master Collection for my Team Canada goalie collection
canada 10 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
Lastly a couple quad memorabilia cards for my Team Canada goalie collection
In between transitioning between other pc's and the Turco collection are a couple of booklets that didn't fit in my top 10 group pictures. One for the random PC's (Pickard collection) and one for the Turco collection. I had a really good year in finding older Turco wantlist cards. This being one of them...
booklets by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
Second last top 10 list is My Turco Cup pickups. Only one card here was new to the collection. The rest are all duplicates for some hoards...

turco cup 8 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr

turco 1 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
turco 2 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr

turco 4 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
My second copy of this particular card, but love the design all these years later...
turco 5 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr

turco 6 by Tim Hykawy, on Flickr
Two Victory cards knocked off the wantlist. I am down to just missing one Victory card. An unnumbered silver parallel from 02-03. Also the last card I am missing from that season to have all of Turco's cards from that season...
