UD is becoming more and more of a niche product maker, specifically higher end cards. I could easily see them ditch their products that retail under $100 in the next 3-5 years.

This is why they where left out of baseball. MLB wanted the companies to have a wider range of products and prices focusing on set building again and UD stuff for the most part was 50 or more a pack.

I live in the south so I really don't know, but are Hockey cards really that popular anyway??

Hockey has steady and loyal following albeit small-- about 10-15% of the hobby.. A liitle less then Basketball. But 2/3 of hockey sells are in Canada.
