Host Doug Plagens is back with a massive episode breaking down the week's biggest hockey news and its direct impact on the hobby!
Two big NHL trades caused an immediate stir in the card market:
Quinn Hughes to the Wild: We examine his Young Guns (PSA 10 sales around $180) and the immediate hobby buzz. The Canucks acquired three former first-round picks : Zeev Buium, Liam Öhgren , and Marco Rossi, whose card prices we take a look at, too. Then we take a look at Tristan Jarry to the Oilers: What the move means for his Young Guns ($13-$16 raw) and the upside if he helps Edmonton win the Cup.
Then Doug reviews some of the huge sales coming out of Upper Deck’s The Cup: Macklin Celebrini Gold Foil Rookie Patch Auto (out of 24) sold for just under $32,000. Will Smith Base Rookie Patch Auto (out of 99) sold for $7,400. The Logan Stankoven Rookie Shield (1-of-1) sold for $4,126.
