My vote goes to the Rookie Materials. Maybe it's because they fit a whole lotta patch into a microscopic window and you rarely that in UD Series 1 & 2...but really, it just pops.

Blues Round Closed

warsawknuckles467's MacInnis The Cup: 12 (ty4; iluv; bimola; onoxxx; jafi; crawler; jaykay; thunder; BFan91; vadim; wick; spud)
warsawknuckles467's Erik Johnson Upper Deck: 2 (pretzel; rice)
warsawknuckles467's Halak Dominion: 1 (bonnev)
bonnev659's Oshie OPC Premier: 1 (opie)

Congratulations to warsawknuckles467 for your stunning MacInnis, a card that will surely contend during the 'Best Patch' playoffs once we get through all 30 teams. We're glad you brought these heavyweights to the boards and when you're ready, the next pick is yours. As always, feel free to invent your own category (including National Teams since our ASG/Nat'l Team round was almost entirely All-Star Game patches.

here is a scan of just the MacInnis for archiving/photo purposes

anyway, on to the next topic...

how about we do "Special Patches" from jerseys... one-off patches, shoulder patches, etc. something that isn't from the chest emblem, number, nameplate, etc.

Something along the lines of the "Badger Bob" patches from Penguins jerseys, the province crest from the Calgary shoulder, etc.
if someone provides one that no one has seen or believes exists, here is a link to the NHL patch database site. you may need to provide a link or photo of the full patch...

i suppose i could re-enter the MacInnis, but that would be cheating, right? here is my entry:

comes from the Thrasher's 5th Anniversary patch. it's the bird's mouth and part of "Atlanta".

Too complicated for me. Think I'll pass this round. I'll be back in a few days. Have fun. Spud

That's an interesting idea...it's definitely going to make people work for their entries and I'll surely learn a thing or two.

I want to show these off on behalf of avsfan193377 (from this post on page 70) since they'll really shine in this custom-built category.

Here's his follow-up post on page 71 showing what part of what patch these two swatches come from.

avsfan193377, I don't see you around very frequently but hopefully you'll stop by in time to claim credit for these and maybe add a few more while you're at it!

i am out this round as well i think

I entered this in the Habs round, but it seems more appropriate in this one:

Skrudland 1/1with 1992 All-Star Patch worn on his Canadiens jersey.

The picture of this full patch is on the link below! Choose 1990s then 1992/93 and then click on the all-star link and it will show it.

I don't know if these count for this round or not...I haven't pulled a lot of extremely unique hockey patches compared to other sports...


RE: Show Me a BETTER Patch Than This...(Special Patches, pg. 110) - bimola - 10-17-2011

I like this idea - I'll have a couple tomorrow to post. Should be some pretty amazing cards showing up ( like the ones above)

That Hoggan's a looker but boy, your Ben Bishop ain't right. You're too modest man, sick sick stuff. Thanks for sharing these.
