2010-11 Panini Crown Royale Hockey Contest

I know, I know. You don’t have to tell me. I’m behind on just about everything these days. We opened our incredible review box how many days ago now? We teased the contest how long after that? And we’re just now getting to the actual start of the contest??? In the middle of a group […]

2010-11 Panini Crown Royale Hockey Review and Prelude to a Contest

Once again, the generosity of Jefferson Burdick Award Winner Tracy Hackler at Panini America has shone upon us. And once again, since we got free cards, you’re going to get free cards.

It doesn’t show up […]
