Hi folks. Landlocked Islander fan and fan of all past Kentucky hockey teams and players. Primarily collect Wade Flaherty. I also collect New York Islanders, some HOFers, & players who played here. I am sensing a theme.

Welcome to the boards. I just started collecting hockey again with the dual rookie class in 12-13 and 13-14 products. My team has been the Rangers since their lost to the Kings. What is your favorite card?

Nah...we just all have to drive somewhere else to see it!!! Seriously...not sure what is wrong with the Yum board. Before it was even built, they were talking hockey team. I would rather see the team either back in Freedom Hall though. Hear THAT KFEC Board?

Just coming back to cards after a looong hiatus. Not sure I have a favorite card. I do tend to favor team-released sets though. Have yet to pick up cards from the last few years. Will probably try to swap for commons once I start going through the tower of 3200 ct boxes. I am trying to focus on filling holes in my Wade Flaherty PC first though. Working on KY hockey history. Was doing same years ago but laid it down for a while. So that's a priority as well. Isles have been my team through good times and bad. So...my favorite cards are probably those I got signed in-person. I do remember fondly cutting out some etopps from their plastic prisons and getting them signed.
