Overview
Marian Gaborik cards and autographed memorabilia certainly have room to increase in value. Selected with the third overall pick by the Minnesota Wild in the 2000 NHL Entry Draft, he also played for the Rangers and Columbus before landing with the Kings. As a key part of a deadline trade that moved him to Los Angeles, Gaborik may have found himself a permanent home and one that gets him more attention.
The Kings' frequent postseason success has been bolstered with Gaborik's scoring abilities. On the flipside, by playing in such a big market on a successful team should help the values of Marian Gaborik cards and memorabilia.
Marian Gaborik has a total of 25 rookies cards. They were released in various 2000-01 products. Several of the cards are serial numbered although none are autographed or contain memorabilia.
Gaborik's first certified autographed cards were inserts issued in 2000-01. His first game-used memorabilia cards debuted the following year. He has cards in multiple 2001-02 products. One of the most popular is a card from Be A Player Signature Series. It is serial numbered to 10 and combines a game-used jersey swatch and autograph.
Marian Gaborik's autographed memorabilia has seen up and down fluctuations in the market. A potential increase in demand should see the value of his signed memorabilia items increase over time.
