Right after the jump, check out Jim's cards along with his notes.

Cards of the Week: Rod Brind'Amour and Zach Boychuk Rookies

by Bob Wage on Jun 9, 2010 2:30 PM EDT in Cards of the Week Comment 25 comments

We were sent quite a few cards to share with readers, so this feature will now be published more than just one time per week. I changed the name appropriately to "cards" of the week.

Next up are two cards sent in by "Kevin", one old and one new. I like them because they kind of symbolize the changing of the guard with the Hurricanes. The first Kevin says is an Upper Deck rookie card of Rod Brind`Amour. The veteran was nice enough to sign this for him after a game.

Check out the size of the face shield.

Card of the Week: Staal, Cole, and Sutter

by Bob Wage on Jun 3, 2010 1:31 PM EDT in Cards of the Week Comment 16 comments

To help us get through the summer, I thought it might be interesting to start a new feature called "Card of the Week". (Although we might actually do this more than once per week). I came across this card on Ebay the other night and had a good chuckle. The card is included in the latest and greatest from the 2009-10 edition of Be A Player cards, and they are selling at a pretty good pace right now.

But their quality control might need some improvement.

If you have a unique card or an old one you think people would be interested in seeing, send me a photo at canescountry@gmail.com. If it gets posted, you will be in the running for a prize that we will give out at the end of the summer for the best additions. (a t-shirt or a puck). Good luck!
