Well, I had a very very long day and how please was I when I got back home to see a parcel there? Yup very, inside were 2 boxes of UD Habs centennial. I have spent the last 2 hours busting them and reading the back of all the cards...Love the product! I managed to get a complete base set 1-200 and 46/100 of cards 200 to 300.
Now for the hits, I ended up with 6 autos in 2 boxes, not bad at all I think, 4 habs ink, a AKA auto and one induction inks.
The Habs inks:
Carbonneau
Higgins
Desjardins
Mondou
Induction ink: Bert Olmstead 62/85
AKA auto: Richard "Dick" Duff 15/25
I'm quite happy with the break and I am debating whether or not to get more boxes...tricky business...BTW I love the memorable moment card about Koivu's return...that was such an emotion filled moment.
Comments welcome as always!
Thanks for the look

Thanks for the comments guys :)
I got to say i think UD made a really good move there, making centennial cards accessible to pretty much all fans unlike ITG with BBR.

I had a little tear in my eye when I saw the Koivu Memorable Moments. That was an amazing moment. I'm on the hunt for that Richard Closing the Forum as well. Also amazing.
Great breaks, are any FT? LOL

That's a very good parallel to get! One of mine was the Maurice Richard Retired Jerseys, which really made my day. A parallel of an SP! LOL

Nice boxes Karine! Getting six autos definitely makes that a sweet break. You know you want to get some more :P
Any time wax shows up at your door is a good thing, I'll be experiencing that feeling in a couple of days when my box of Topps UFC comes in :)
