Been away a while - looking for some advice

[gretzky99]

I've been away for a while (before the playoffs last year) and haven't been following the hobby at all. Now that the lockout looks to be over I'm interested in possibly putting together a set commemorating the Kings Stanley Cup win. Does anyone here know if any sets have come out commemorating the Kings victory? My preference is that it be very comprehensive (as many players as possible) and not super high end. Any advice?

You could always start with the Day with the Cup inserts in Upper Deck Series 1. I don't know how much they'll set you back since they're short printed, but that's one set I know is out there.

Here's the checklist:

2012-13 Upper Deck Day With The Cup

DC-1 Viatcheslav Voynov
DC-2 Andrei Loktionov
DC-3 Anze Kopitar
DC-4 Jonathan Bernier
DC-5 Simon Gagne
DC-6 Rob Scuderi
DC-7 Colin Fraser
DC-8 Darryl Sutter
DC-9 Jonathan Quick
DC-10 Dustin Brown
DC-11 Justin Williams
DC-12 Matt Greene
DC-13 Willie Mitchell
DC-14 Dwight King
DC-15 Jarret Stoll
DC-16 Dustin Penner
DC-17 Mike Richards
DC-18 Jordan Nolan
DC-19 Kevin Westgarth

the insert sets are cool but is there anything autographed?

sounds like they have done some stuff but nothing with autos - that's a bummer. i was hoping someone would put out an auto set of something like "Day with the Cup". i would be chasing that for some time.

thanks for the comments - good to see folks are still helpful on SCF.

Wonder why Panini didn't do a certified champions auto/25 or gu/100 set including some Kings like they did last year with 5 Bruin's Cup winners? Those cards look awesome!

Not sure about the other sets mentioned..... but the 'Day with the Cup' inserts sell for big bucks. None of the singles will go for much less than $50

If you really want to wait it out and spend a lot of money, the Dominion Engravatures would be a set for you They are engraved pieces of silver, and look phenomenal.
