Prime Rookie Shield Auto - a little help needed

[ejs23]

Pulled my first shield auto... not quite a MacKinnon. Nice looking card though.

Anyone know anything about, or have an opinion on, Christian Thomas? Does he have potential? I tried to read up but not much out there to go on.

thanks!

Awesome pull. Did you pull it locally at Legacy or Ultimate? As for Thomas I dont believe that he has too much upside but the fact that its a HABS rookie is good, if your looking to move it. Look at Louis Leblanc, his stuff went crazy for a while, cause hes a HAB.

If you're talking about holding out in the chance that he blows up in the league, I'd say your chances are slim to none. I'd go ahead and sell it now for the best value. I highly doubt that becomes any more valuable in the future.

Yes, pulled it at Legacy. Had just finished participating in a NT group break and decided to try a box of Prime before leaving. Good info... I figured that if nothing else, him being Canadian and playing for Montreal might help.

Thanks for the input... disappointing but sort of what I expected.

I'll probably throw it on ebay to entertain offers. The #/5 version of this card sold for $150 so maybe I can squeeze something out of this... as far as I can see it's his only shield out there. If I don't get a decent offer I'll just hang on to it for the novelty.

Thanks guys!

watched him play in juniors with Oshawa.... he put up impressive numbers, but 3 NHL games under his belt 1 of them being with his NYR - I dont see him getting a chance like his did "Stumpy" did lol
