I like your comment more than the blog. Good deal.

Must be no name.

I was curious what this stick would go for. I read an article probably on TSN about that guy from Fort Mac talking about this stick. Like I thought to myself the guy had some very valid question, like how many goals did he score with said stick, is that really the stick that scored goal 1000 or was it a stick that was just said to be the one that scored the 100th goal?

Either way, seems like a lot for a stick that really has no significant value.

Shawn what's my Bobby Smith 79-80 Opeechee card worth?

I once received a bruised shin from Bobby Orr's nephew playing ball hockey - does that count as a notable souvenir? How about halloween candy from Bobby's parents?

Once the wife is home and I don't have kids running around like monkeys on acid to look after anymore I'll dig out the price guide and give you an approximate...

What is the condition like? Corners? Centring? Cut? Just in general...

Of course it was. The only time I buy Kraft is when I get spirals. When you're talking regular mac and cheese, No Name >>>> Kraft

I shook his hand when I was 7....but you were probably looking for something else.

I don't even know where it is. I just remember the day I got that card. I wanted the Gretzky from that set, not because it was worth money but because it was Gretzky. My cousin instead gives me Smith and kept everything else to himself.

I'd be curious what he ended up getting out of all that. There was 1000's of cards from the 60's and 70's at my Grandmas. And all I (frank)ing get is a Bobby Smyth rookie card.

All of those years on the one card?

The cheese has no taste. If you were a smoker it would make sense.

I have a coin from 1784

What you talking about Willis?

One card I (frank)ed up on was a pro-set hologram card from 91-92 I believe. Was worth 125 bucks at one time, then it dropped to 50 bucks and no one wanted it


This was back when holograms were so bad that you had no idea what the hell the picture was of.

Never smoked in my life, and I find the cheese waaaaaaaay better. We may get it from a different factory than you guys.

While taking a side grinder to a 1984 penny takes a lot of skill to turn into a 1784, people do realize that the queen isn't 400 years old.

You said "Bobby Smith 79-90 Opeechee card"

I was checking out the value of my Jagr/Ciccarelli/Klima/Hunter/Federov/Blake/Sundin/Hasek/Belfour/Joseph/Richter/Essensa/Weight/Madono/Smyth/Nolan/Bondra/Moginly/Nedved/Hatcher/Brind'Amour/Ricci/Recchi/Rob and Scott Niedermayer/Daigle/Juneau ect ect rookie cards were worth and they were basically worth nothing

I also have Roberto Alomar and Shaquille o'Neal rookie cards that are apparently worth (frank) all

You don't understand what 79-80 means do you?

(frank)!

Seriously though, it's from 1784... I found it as a kid when I was playing with my trucks/tractors and digging the sh1t out of the backyard. It has Carlos something written on it.
