TCDB Trade - Lords of the Rink

A few weeks back I received my favorite kind of trade offer on Trading Card Database - one where I trade away baseball and get hockey in return.  There are plenty of traders that have cards from my for sell/trade list, but they pretty much only have baseball to trade back. 

I've actually had a shift in the last few days and I'm not trying to collect the three guys (Dale Murphy, Will Clark and Mickey Tettleton) from the junk wax era that were on my wish list.  Too many traders were wanting to trade me three cent cards from that era for more recent cards that both cost and have more value than those.  The kicker is that they wanted one-for-one. 

It's going to make trading tougher for me, but such is life, I suppose. 

I traded away five baseball cards for seven Blackhawks cards from the 1994-95 Pinnacle Rink Collection parallel set.  This is one of the parallels that I want to acquire the entire team set of.  I never imagined I'd get seven of the seventeen in one trade.  Lucky me! 

The cards were 1:4 packs.  For the baseball collectors reading, this is the hockey version of Pinnacle's Museum Collection. I know there's a lot of love out there for those cards.
