Troy you bought your case from my LCS. I use to work for him back in 1998 and still stop by at lest once a month for the card show he has in the back of the shop.

Are box bottoms listed in Beckett monthly? I'd check myself, but I don't have one. Also, as of late, I've been buying wax wrappers from the 70s and 80s and filling them up with perfect non valuable cards and re-sealing them. I then put them on display beside the ( for eg) Yzerman rookie card.

I dont remember that triple auto ever being a chase back in the day..I always remember trying to "Find the Hull" which was a drawing type card i think /2500

Feel better soon!

Theres an account on IG that tracks the Stanley Cup Holos

Get well soon Josh!

In the last episode there was a mailbag question asking if anyone has competed a set of Monumental Patches. I have 4 of the 6 Igor Shesterkin Rookie Monumental Patches, my number one PC quest is to get the other 2 if at all possible. I have never seen the other 2 for sale and unfortunately it might not be possible since all Shesterkin cards are redemptions in The Cup. To me The Monumental Rookie Patches are grail cards since the card is hard signed with the best patches possible in the hobby.

There is also the Lombardi trohy holo in Pro Set football too

I have had arguments with people about what series the Cup holo is in. I bought a ton of series 1 but some are saying its in series 2 as well I need to know lool

I recently tried to PSA my triple auto 50/50 hull lemieux gretzky card. I was only trying to get the autos authenticated (even though I know these are legit), however PSA would not authenticate the card as Upper Deck never released the 50/50 card with all 3 autos as the sigs were coordinated by a reseller afterwards. This gets into the other conversation where I was supposed to submit as a generic "trading card" for auto authentication and not a dual authentication. So even though that is a legit upper deck released 50/50 card, because Upper Deck never released as a triple auto, they wouldnt process the order. In PSA's view, this would create confusion if they authenticated it, suggesting that other hobbyists would somehow interpret PSA's authentication as validating UD actually released these triple autos themselves. I ended up just selling the card raw.

I remember ripping off my buddy for that Brett Hull rookie when we were like 12. He didn't know it was his rookie. I then proceeded to trade it for a copy of Techmo Bowl for the NES a couple years later.

I bought a 42" C2 a couple years ago. Best decision I've made in my tech journey is owning an OLED

Johnny is a TO legend !! How are you giving that box away???

Great episode guys! Johnny was a great guest!

Awesome show as always boys!!

Thank you for doing this pod, fellas. Rejoining the hobby has been a truly joyful experience. This pod is my guiding light. Also happy to have a vintage episode after a bunk allure box last night. lol

I think the concept of looking for purely hockey cards at the National is overstated. I saw almost no tables that had only baseball. Or only football. I think the majority of dealers have boxes of Football, Baseball, Basketball, Hockey, Racing, Soccer, Pokemon, Star Wars .... and they are constantly selling out of some things as the days go by.

Keep it up fellas!

Love the show boys! Phil’s kimono is so tough I’m seriously debating purchasing one for myself. “Don’t ever change, okay”

Just another show when you guys are loving the Clear Cut Series, just admit you 3 you are fans of the product.

The story about John was fantastic content. Thanks for sharing this.

The guys that organized the trade night SkolnSteel was the same breakers that hit the 1 of 1 gold draft day outburst

Paul didn’t go to selannes hof induction because Kariya’s is bitter at the nhl and wants nothing to do with the nhl

Though i’ve generally liked him Phil was a distraction today. Please once in a while is fine!

Question for Josh Troy and Phil: Now that CT scanning of Packs and Boxes where you can see what is inside a sealed box or pack with out opening it is available are you going to stop buying them?

Whatnot is where I get 90% of my hockey cards. And I never do breaks. There’s a ton of great sellers just doing great deals on singles. I was surprised that more people don’t use it.

Kijiji is an Ebay company by the way.

You don't see many guys doing a hockey card podcast wearing a smoking jacket.

Datsyuk made the playoffs EVERY year he played...my 2nd fave player all time after Stevie Y....

G.P.O.A.T (Greatest Podcast of all time) thank you all for another great episode!

Hidden gem of the National...the bar down the street "TEAMZ" amazong food good service, TVs. So glad we didnt eat at the IX center.

whaaaaaat. Hockey Trade Night!!! I had no clue. Would have gone....

Ehhhhhhh hope yas all had great weekend, opened one box of Allure with my niece,... Jordan Kyrou 1 of 1 plate, Own Beck RPA Purple Diamond #5/10, and a Connor Bedard blue purple spectrum colour flow #5/25. Decent box eh

“Pavel Stinkoven” went over everyone’s head like a JD Vance bad joke. Hilarious…thanks boyz!

I especially like Louie's background, that hockey stick cabinet is siiick!

When I saw Phil’s attire I thought we were finally getting Gongshow after dark 😂

re: ePack hits. To me it is no different than cases/boxes/cards being sent to the various distributors. I see ePack as a form of a "distributor". In Canada it would be like complaining that specific shields were available from Grosnor stores -- but my LCS uses Universal so I have no shot at that shield. Should I be upset that shield card is not available in product at my LCS? And then add in the USA vs Canada aspect. Should Americans be upset specific hits are not available in the states? This all assumes the x% of random cases being sent/distributed to ePack -- similar to a% and b% being distributed between Canada and USA.

So I was at the National Wednesday and Thursday and I'm glad I was there Wednesday because Thursday was a zoo. I can't imagine the rest of the week but it's a strong positive indicator for the hobby that it was packed early in the week. I saw plenty of cash being thrown around too. There was some hockey there however not enough for how big the show is. A lot of dealers listed their high end cards 3 to 4 times higher than recent comps which makes it difficult to even get a conversation going. My personal best pick up was a Jason Robertson SPA Black Future Watch Auto. My one gripe is the amount of people strolling a case in behind them, this shouldn't be allowed. It takes up too much space and now everyone has the enjoyment of walking around your case. It's just plain selfish when space is limited with soooo many people jammed in there. What was even worse, some people had the nerve to travel around with a large stroller for all their stuff. There was so much stuff in the stroller you would think they were dealers looking to set up but they were just regular customers.

Chevrefils: Shev er fee It's card #1, so it's in fantastic shape just for that fact alone ...and didn't Bee Hive have cartoons on the back?

Did Americans see Don Cherrys Coach's Corner every Saturday during Hockey Night in Canada?

Loved this episode, so many funny moments. Phil had me cracking up. So glad he’s on the show more often!

Not sure if any one said but the Crosby PMG is a Marvel tribute I believe 2012 2013 which was the first year they did marvel pmgs

Great show guys!

Score one for Fanatics Collect on their auto grade on non-authentic card policy amendment. Great pod boyz!

Great segment on Coffey. He is one of my all time favorites, so all this was nice to hear.

I don't think that it's nobody cares about Adam Fox, I think that when you're asking more for Fox than Brian Leetch cards...I'd rather put my money towards Leetch cards

So you can buy an E-pack of UD any product online and open it virtually? Then it gets sent to you in the mail? First, I hear about this. That sounds so messed up that such a huge card isn't in a hobby box pack but digitally online.
