Since the return from my summer hiatus, I've been to a few trade nights and a couple of local shows but just never saw anything that really made me want to chase a trade.
Well at tonight's monthly trade night....I managed to pull the trigger.
Mike Modano
Inducted in 2014
Like I said, this is truly a new addition. As in last week I wasn't chasing this card.
Call me silly, but I feel like I shouldn't add to the wantlist until the actual Hall Of Fame ceremony has taken place. Technically, they aren't a part of the Hall until then.
If I were to "work ahead", I could conceivably chase cards like Lidstrom, Brodeur, Crosby and Connor McDavid. But I don't feel comfortable doing that. It would feel like cheating and not give the respect to the Hall Of Fame project as a whole.
But Modano is in.....and now he's a part of my collection. This Cup card is a perfect addition. High-end card, beautiful signing space, great signature, solid photo (and with the team you'd want with him) and I made a fair trade for it.
What more can a guy say. I hope all my future acquisitions for the pc are as smooth as the one tonight.
