    Let's Have Some More Fun - Post Your White Whale List

    OK so that S&T thread went pretty well. :)

    Let's see if we can help each other out here - post up 3-5 cards that you consider to be the "white whales" of your collection-building efforts. Certainly there's got to be some opportunity here to get a deal or two rolling that can really help a collector get a card into their PC that they've been chasing for a long time now.

    This is totally an open thread - post up those cards you've been looking for with no success, and hopefully somebody who drops in will see a card they have and think, "This belongs to a good home."

    I'll kick us off with a couple of my Gorges needs:

    2014-15 O-Pee-Chee Retro Blank Backs #155 Josh Gorges
    2013-14 SPx Winning Trios Patch #W3LBBR Josh Gorges/Carey Price/P.K. Subban
    2013-14 Upper Deck Team Canada High Gloss Gold #144 Josh Gorges

    I have literally never seen any one of these cards to date. So any help on this would be awesome.

    Another one I'd love to land - I do see a copy pop up once in a blue moon but they disappear just as quickly:

    2011-12 Upper Deck UD Canvas Autographs #C46 Carey Price /31

    Since the Canadian Tire Master sets are my priority I would have to say that it is these five:
    17/18 Team Canada Connor McDavid Clear Cut World Juniors WJC1
    17/18 Team Canada Mitch Marner Clear Cut World Juniors WJC3
    17/18 Team Canada Nolan Patrick Clear Cut World Juniors WJCSPNP
    17/18 Team Canada Nico Hischier VS Black VSBNH
    17/18 Team Canada Patrick Wayne Gretzky Silver Spectrum Exclusives 140 /100
    The want list at this link features what I need of Gretzky, Roy, Ottawa Senators, and Miscellaneous sets. I also have a CFL want list on my page and if you have nothing from it I will consider other traders of current Ottawa Senators,Guy Lafleur, + trade bait.

    Appreciate this thread, more than happy to throw out a line.

    Mainstream Kurri whales:
    04/05 Franchises Canadian Mem/auto #SM24 /10
    04/05 Franchises Original Sticks Gold /20
    04/05 Franchises Teammates w/Anderson Gold /20

    And putting these two out there because typing them is the only time I ever see them listed:
    78/79 Finnish SM-Liiga #76
    89/90 Finnish Pelimiehen #2

    @piper1 There's two Marner and two McDavid, and three of the Gretzky, on eBay right now. They're pricey, but they're there.

    Working on a 14-15 OPC platinum rainbow of Darnell Nurse (on and off - sold a few of the non auto cards and now looking to right a wrong). Ever since I started I don't ever recalling seeing either one of these 2 cards available. These 2 would be my biggest white whales
