Most of us enjoy the sport the most about this end of the hobby, but that might be what drives the values of the cards up. We tend to collect teams that are close to home, or that house our favorite players. Plus it seems that the integral parts of hockey teams (Alfredsson, Lidstrom, Lundqvist, Iginla, Sedin's, Crosby, to name a few) tend to stay loyal to the teams they play for, and the fans stay loyal to them. Having player PCs will fire a desire into acquiring ANY card from that player's checklist... check pens fan addict's (Hugh's) Maxime Talbot collection for an example!!!
I personally collect Jaroslav Halak, and will trade for any of his cards that I need.
