The Vancity Card Show is coming back to Vancouver with hundreds of tables of trading cards, an appearance by Eric Lindros, and more.

The Vancity Card Show is returning with hundreds of tables covered in trading cards of all sorts.

The three-day event is taking over the western section of the Vancouver Convention Centre with more than 500 tables of hockey cards, Pokemon cards, and other types of trading and collectible cards.

On top of that, the event will feature some notable appearances.

Three competitors from Dana White's Power Slap league (where two people slap each other) will be present.

"Attendees will have the opportunity to talk with the champions, learn to slap, take part in demonstrations, and test their skills in a fun family friendly environment," describe the Vancouver event organizers.

And hockey legend Eric Lindros is also set to appear at the Vancity Card Show.

One of the biggest names in the NHL through the 90s and early 2000s, Lindros put up more than a point-per-game in his injury-shortened career.
