    2 x Blasters 14/15 Series 2, 1 x Blaster OPC Platinum - Drouin YG + more!

    Picked up a couple of blasters today. Was hoping to find a Series 1 blaster as I still need Gaudreau, but no luck. Instead picked up 2 blasters of Series 2 and 1 blaster of OPC Platinum. Some nice hits!!

    First OPC Platinum...





    Jordan Eberle Retro
    Wayne Simmonds Rainbow
    Roberto Luongo /199
    Drew Doughty Traxx?
    Duncan Keith /199
    Corban Knight RC
    Sam Reinhart RC
    Josh Jooris RC
    Alexander Khokhlachev RC
    Willaim Karlsson RC
    Seth Griffith RC

    Lots of hits in this blaster. Pretty good.

    And now the 2 blasters of Series 2:




    Joe Sakic Team Canada GU Jersey
    Curtis Lazar OPC RC
    Tyler Myers Canvas
    2010 Hockey Heroes Header!
    Cedric Paquette YG
    Derrick Pouliot YG
    John Tavares HH
    Teemu Selanne Canvas Retired! SP
    Ryan Kesler OPC Update
    Jonathan Drouin YG (nice!)
    Darnell Nurse YG

    Pretty awesome blasters. I am down to only needing Johnny Gaudreau YG from Series 1, so at the moment, looking to trade the Drouin YG towards that. For the rest, please see my wantlist/tradelist below:

    I hit my Drouin out of a Blaster as well, but probably only bought four or five. Bought probably 15 trying to hit a MacKinnon and never did. Congrats on the hits! I always feel that no matter what the inserts are, UD is always worth buying blasters in because of the Young Guns.

    Thanks everyone.

    Yeah, I've lots of luck with UD Series 1&2 Blasters. In contrast, had terrible luck with Artifacts, Black Diamond, etc. Although the couple of OPC Platinum ones have been pretty good so far. But, if you need that big YG, blasters can be a good shot. I've been lucky now to hit some nice YG in blasters.

    I've felt that Black Diamond really isn't good if you're looking for hits. I just feel it's more of a set collector's set. I've done okay with some of the Panini blasters as well, but only because I bought them after they were $12. Wouldn't have looked as good at the $20 price point.

    Nice hits and I agree with the posts above, the UD blasters are great because of the YG's

    Agreed on the blasters and young gun comments. Retail tins can prove to be helpful as well.
