I don’t feel much like waxing melancholic about the Vancouver Canucks doldrumfest tonight, so I’ll just ignore the sloppy starts against Edmonton & San Jose and talk about hockey cards instead.

I haven’t collected in a long time, but I’m always tempted to get back into the hobby during the midpoint of a campaign. Even in a shortened season, I lose interest for a few weeks before the real playoff races start to heat up. Inevitably I turn my sports attention to memorabilia, like my modest collection of signed pucks, or printed matter like any number of hockey cards on the market.
More, including a completely fictitious card, after the jump.
