HOF v Rookie Future Watch

GKG51 · 07-04-2022, 01:17 AM

I know that this subject has been touched on in many different threads but I was hoping to get some direct insight and thoughts about the hobby.

The following are sold on ebay prices of Future Watch HOF type players:
Toews-$230(US), Kopitar-200, Kane-700, Malkin-400, Karlsson-120,
Doughty-100, Lundqvist-200, Bergeron-600, Keith-60,

2020-21 SP Future Watch: Lafreniere-$750, Stutzle-600, Cozens (Redemption)-230, Krebs-130, Sorokin-300, Francouz-90, Hoglander-70,
Hagel-95, N Robertson-300, J Robinson-330, Norris,-270

Obviously the new hot stuff is always going to be overpriced from the start and gradually go down but both of these groups of pricing is crazy. There are /999 of both so scarcity isn't the issue. The fact that people are spending more money on guys with a couple season under their belt than generational bests is mind boggling. How long does it take "rookies" (loosely used word considering these guys already have played 2 full seasons) prices to come back down to earth? How much room for growth does the HOF group have if these prices remain the same? Any thoughts and insight is always appreciated.
