The Card Trade That Stopped A Beatdown & The Release of Upper Deck Allure

Описание: Join Doug Plagens for another edition of Nonsense on Ice presented by ‪@UpperDeckOfficial‬. The episode kicks off with a look at the hottest storylines in the NHL, including the Tampa Bay Lightning’s winning streak and the Vegas Golden Knights’ push in the Pacific, before diving into the latest product news surrounding the release of 25-26 Upper Deck Allure.

Doug also provides a market check-in on Sharks phenom Macklin Celebrini's rookie cards, breaking down the latest sales data for his Young Guns and O-Pee-Chee cards.

Special guest Mick Kern from SiriusXM NHL Network Radio then stops by to share his lifelong passion for collecting, which began with the iconic 1971-72 O-Pee-Chee set. Mick discusses why he collects for the love of the game rather than profit and recounts an incredible story from his high school days where brokering a trade for a Pete Mahovlich card actually saved him from a beating by a bully who needed just that one card to complete his set. The conversation wraps up with Mick gifting Doug a hilarious personalized rookie card from 1989 and a look ahead at the future of the hobby.

To close out the show, Doug highlights the Hobby Three Stars of the week featuring Olympic-bound talents Jake Sanderson, Moritz Seider, and Jack Eichel.

The episode concludes with a Value Vintage Pick dedicated to Mick’s favorite player, Ken Dryden, and a breakdown of the best value break spots in the new Allure release, specifically looking at the Nashville Predators and other key teams to chase.
