2009-10 Collector's Choice John Tavares

This 2009-10 Collector's Choice John Tavares rookie card is a first year card of the New York Islanders youngster. Since Tavares was the first overall pick in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, cards of the Canadian center were highly sought after by contemporary hockey card collectors and prospectors upon their release. This Collector's Choice rookie is a lower end rookie card of Tavares and is a great target for collectors who don't want to spend too much. The 2009 World Junior Most Valuable Player, where he led Canada to the Gold Medal, Tavares has yet to really hit his stride in the NHL. Both collectors and hockey fans hope that Tavares eventually realizes his great potential.
