A hockey stick signed by Toronto Maple Leafs icon Bill Barilko just fetched a whopping $70,000 at auction—proof that hockey history still commands serious cash. The winning bid alone was $60K, but fees and taxes pushed the final price even higher.
Editor’s Note: For hockey fans, Barilko isn’t just a name—he’s a legend wrapped in mystery (his 1951 Cup-winning goal was followed by a tragic disappearance). This sale shows how deeply nostalgia and rarity drive collectibles, especially for a franchise as storied as the Leafs. It’s not just a stick; it’s a piece of folklore.
