And finally...



Most is available FS/FT if not already noted as PC. Please forgive me as I'm still getting my feet wet again and don't have anything yet listed in my Wants, but I'll try to put some stuff up there soon. Quick list of players whose cards I gravitate towards (and don't really have much from these guys in the past 15 or so years): Gretzky; Pavel Bure; Stamkos; Yzerman.

Oddities I noticed: The last pack in the box had 8 cards with no special card in it, and that was the only pack like that. One pack had 7 cards and no hit, but the next pack I opened had 9 cards and 2 hits. :) A couple of packs had the same first 3 cards, a hit, and then different cards after that.

And I really, really wanted to break another box!!! :)

Pretty solid break! Nice mix of hits to say "welcome back to the hobby."

Very nice break and welcome back to the hobby! Lots of great hits and I would imagine the Eriksson would be a case hit (not 100% sure though). Is it serial numbered?

The Eriksson is a case hit, and I believe they are /100. You should send a PM to Brad (SlapStick, or Slapstick21 I'm not sure) about it, he is the Eriksson supercollector.

Nice case hit!

Thanks everyone. :) On the RR: Looking at the stated odds - 1:432, which means 1 in every 18 hobby boxes, so 1 every case in a half? I've seen only 12 box cases.

Nice break, interested in trading for the Carey Price jersey. View my Inventory for possible trade, You can search per player.

Will do. At first glance, ummm, I think it could take me a while! :)
