Send us a text

On this episode of the Hockey Cards Gongshow podcast we start by honoring the greatest NHL player to ever wear the number 99, yes you guessed it, Wayne Gretzky (5:21).  In fact, in honor of the greatest hockey player of all-time, we've dedicated this entire episode to no. 99.  Next, we take a look at our favorite playing era and post-playing career Gretzky cards (20:06).  Jeremy Lee returns for the next Hockey Cards Master Class: Gretzky Rookie where he reviews the differences between the Topps and O-Pee-Chee rookies, common defects, how to spot fake Gretzky rookies and with the 1979 Wayne Gretzky rookie is the most iconic and important hockey card (31:06).  In Hobby News, Alex DeBrincat gets traded to the Red Wings and could he see a hobby resurgence (1:45:29)?  We return to no. 99 by reviewing the top five most valuable Wayne Gretzky hockey cards plus take a look at the overall Gretzky hobby market over the past twelve months (1:54:44).  We end the show by reviewing our favorite Vintage and Modern hockey cards in the current PWCC Weekly Auction (2:06:32).
