NHL Trading Cards, How do you choose which company to collect, for the long term?

After not collecting trading cards for almost 25 years, I started to consider collecting NHL trading cards again.
I figured at most there would be 2 or 3 companies producing NHL cards, considering the lack of popularity of the NHL.
To my surprise, there are over a dozen.
How do you choose which cards to start collecting?
I just like the basic NHL trading card with the usual statistics on the back. Where I can collect them year after year, same series.
Topps, Fleer, Upper Deck, ETC, ETC???? Which one to choose, and which series will be around in 10 years.
Thanks in advance.

How long do NHL goalies have to change their pad colours after being traded?

I know the NHL got on Chris Osgood to get pads the matched the team’s colours after he was picked up by the Islanders a few years ago. I know they can be kind of different from the team, especially if the are solid black or solid white. Marc-Andre Fleury’s are similar to the colours of the penguins, but a little different. If anyone could help me out on this, I’d really appreciate it.
