What Would A Grading Monopoly Mean For The Hockey Hobby? We Breakdown the Series Two Checklist, Six Bedard Chase Strategies to Consider This Week, Who's Hot & The Struggle Bus, Fanatics First Card Oops, Mailbag & Personal Pickups
On this episode of the Hockey Cards Gongshow podcast we start by honoring the NHL's (almost) greatest player to wear the number 66 for episode 166 (8:31). Next it's week 21 of Who's Hot & The Struggle Bus for the 2023-24 NHL season (20:29). In Hobby News, SGC is acquired by PSA's owner Collectors and we wonder what a grading company monopoly could mean to the hocky hobby. Plus, a big Fanatics Oops on their First Card 1/1 innovation (53:25). In new product releases, we take an in-depth look at the 2023-24 Upper Deck Series Two checklist and designs as the Bedard Young Guns chase is about to begin (1:16:39)! We look at six potential strategies for chasing Bedard this week and beyond (1:41:37). You asked your burning hockey cards questions and we answer them (1:56:33), then end the show with personal pickups (2:34:16).
