Gems of the Game - Hockey Edition
All right, so this is one of those funky re-packs that you see at retail every now and then, different from the Fairfield stuff - this is from MJ Holding Company. Difference being you get one graded/slabbed card per box with some packs and extras. I've bought a couple of football ones before and gotten OK hits, so when I saw a hockey I snagged it:
The packs (and hits, if any): One 07-08 Ultra, two 08-09 Victory (Crosby Stars of the Game), two 13-14 Prizm (Gallagher RC, Hiller Net Defenders) and three 13-14 Score (Brodeur Highlights, Killorn and Gallagher Hot Rookies, Malkin The Franchise).
The graded: BCCG 10 Crosby Phenomenal Beginnings #8. Hmmm...not much value in the BCCG stuff anyway - and who grades this little set?!? Nice that it's a "10" (which is only Mint or better in BCCG land) but that's about it
The bonuses: An oversize 06-07 NHL Rookies (Malkin, Stastny, Radulov, J Staal, Kessel and Carle) - was this a box topper in some RC blaster? Nice little PC hit for me on the Stastny there.
AND three packs of "Hockey Greats" individual coins from 96-97. I was buying heavily back then but do not recall seeing these. Does anyone know if they were Canadian-only? Very similar looking to Pinnacle Mint, but with only 25 coins on the list. I got Belfour, David Wilkie and Joe Sakic (another PC hit!), so I guess I'm pretty pleased.
Worth the $20? Probably not, but still fun to break!

Yeah, the coins were probably only in Canada..... I definitely remember them. Chelios was an SP of sorts (I've got a set, minus Chelios, somewhere.... I think).
Looks like it was fun!
