In this week’s episode of the Puck Junk Hockey Podcast, Sal Barry and Tim Parish take a look back at the 2005-06 Parkhurst Hockey card set. It was one of the last sets to be released that season, but stands out as one of the best. Plus, they talk about new cards from Upper Deck and President’s Choice Trading Cards, and about this weekend’s Virtual Expo. It’s 80 minutes of hockey goodness!

2005-06 Ice is a sinkhole. For those of us who were there, we know that any given box has maybe $30 of cards in it. But the unsuspecting don’t know that. I kind of wish I’d stashed boxes at the time when they were steeply discounted, although I’d feel guilty selling them at these inflated prices.

I know what you mean. About 7 years ago I picked up a 2005-06 Beehive box for $50. I did get a 5″x7″ Crosby, and overall it was a fun break:
