UPDATE- This is all we need to finish the base set-
210 Earl RC
275 Thornton/Nabokov/Cheechoo 3 Stars
288 Staal (Eric) Chippy's Choice
295 Luongo Chippy's Choice
Looking for about 75 cards to finish a base set (1-250) also 3 star selections, Cup Quest, Chippys Choice, and stickers. I am building this with my youngest son. He's 6 and is really getting into it. I'll have to clean up his list! Little hard to read...
If you can help LMK what you need and I'll send a list.
Thanks-K

Ok, so I know this is probably getting a few laughs but this is the deal. My son Brandon is 6 and he's learning to collect and build sets. He has a pretty cool Penguins collection started, and a number of Goalie cards. Kids love goalies! Anyway, to learn to build a set we chose UD Collectors Choice for the following reasons. Dad can buy a box or 2 without breaking the bank. The set is not impossible. It has great photos. It has all the elements of other sets like limiteds and parallels and sub sets but no high end inserts or autos.
After 3 boxes we are still looking for the following base cards-
51 Penner
208 D'Agostini RC
210 Earl RC
226 Matthias RC
255 Iginla/Kiprusoff/Phaneuf 3 Stars
275 Thornton/Nabokov/Cheechoo 3 Stars
283 Pronger Chippy's Choice
288 Staal (Eric) Chippy's Choice
295 Luongo Chippy's Choice
Thats a total of 9 for those of you following along at home...
We have a lot of Base (white), Choice Reserve (silver parallel), and a few Prime Choice (gold parallel) to trade or you can check my bucket. Yes I can find all of these cards on eBay for less than another box but I wanted to show Brandon how the hobby can work with set building and trading.
If you can help us out, great, just let me know.
Thanks - Kevin

I've got a 275 Thornton/Nabokov/Cheechoo 3 Stars, do you have a Brassard Rookie or a Sestito Rookie perchance?
