Jesper Wallstedt's early-season success leads to wild rise in hockey card price

Another start, another shutout. Last night, Minnesota Wild goaltender, Jesper Wallstedt, stopped 33 shots from the Edmonton Oilers on his way to posting his fourth shutout in his last six starts. The young netminder now has ten career wins in the NHL, half of those are shutouts. With the 23-year-old moving into the Vezina Trophy conversation, hockey card collectors have taken notice.

Wallstedt, who made his NHL debut during the 2023-24 season, was part of the first series of Upper Deck cards released in 2024-25. His card, #202, is part of the Young Guns subset, recognized by most collectors as the go-to rookie card for players.
