Who is one player you wish you could collect?

[themadmonkey]

As far as players go I collect the only guy I want to so I am not sure I would pick up another player if I had the bankroll.

I think I would probably start building vintage sets if I could. I think that would be fun.

 

[sharkaholic707]

Ovechkin and Patrick Roy for me. Love both of their games to death, but don't have the pockets to compete with other collectors for their cards!

 

[Go Hawks]

I would have to say Gretzky & Howe. those would be my main focus

 

[roaddogg1718]

Avs - Joe Sakic
Current Player - Ilya Kovalchuk
Retired Player - Mario Lemieux

Bobby Clarke. I tried for a while to collect 2 PC players but one cannot keep up with the volume of stuff released and the cost of doing that. At least I can't.

 

[RGM81]

I would love to get more Patrick Roy stuff, and I would really like to get some Maurice Richard items. Too bad those two punks from B.C. with the Habs today consume so many of my hobby dollars already!

 

[gratzi]

Definately Lemieux. My favorite player growing up so no brainer on that choice.

 

[domhas1]

Marty Brodeur for sure...

 

[rabbity]

Iggy! Maybe Nazzy too.

 

[Burner]

Not a particular player, but I wish I could put together these specific cards for my collection:

Maurice Richard RC
Bobby Orr RC
Gordie Howe RC
Guy Lafleur RC
Ken Dryden RC
Wayne Gretzky RC
Mario Lemieux RC
Patrick Roy RC

As for specific players, I'd love to put together Parise cards. Does he even sign anymore?

 

[NickC]

A bunch I wish I had the dough for
1. Messeir
2. Ovechkin
3. Carey Price
4. Gretzky
5. Nick Backstrom
6. Orr
7. Jagr

 

[seanerster]

Gretzky and Orr

 

[Kharlamov17]

I'd still go with Kharlamov. I'd just hoard more.

 

[bto3105]

How about a player who you wished had more available to chase


Bester Please?????

 

[The Great Zo]

Darren McCarty. Yes, a stinkin' Red Wing. But my days of extensive completionist chasing of mid-90s to mid-00s para-hell are over.

 

[Särås]

I go for Peter Forsberg...
But i do love to se Alexander Ovechkin or Wayne Gretzky as my PC!
Great thread!

[allberts]

I have deep pockets and I still cant compete with some of the Ovechkin collectors.. oh well.. Id love to be able to go after more Vintage Memorabilia Cards and Autos of Maurice Richard.. plus its amazing how expensive the Bob Probert stuff is

 

[ToskalaTML]

I wish I could collect;
Ovechkin
Sundin
Stamkos

 

[lucscaps]

I would love to be able to add some the HOF playing Brodeur, but there a couple of guys that have that market tied up. I'm more then happy with my two guys though.


And to answer a past question, Parise does not sign anymore.

 

[enforcersonly]

For me it would be Stefan Meyer, but someone keeps buying all his cards from eBay...
