10-11 the cup
I'm not sure if there is a checklist out yet. Does anyone have any idea who the /99's ARP will be for the upcoming cup?

Surprised they didn't throw Kadri in there since they usually like to shove a Leaf in as an /99

Mercifully we're being spared from that terrible idea this year. Anybody know how much a Tlusty or Pogge is going for these days? Moreover, anybody know what organization they're even with? LOL
Habs fan and collector! Current PC's: Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, and Lane Hutson...., and of course...

I think UD has learned that you don't make marginal (yes, I said it) Leaf prospects a #/99 when there are better blue chippers
Exhibit A: Jiri Tlusty
Exhibit B: Justin Pogge
Kadri would be doomed to Carolina if UD did that.

At least with Kadri being /249 it will make his Cup rookie more affordable for me. In Panini Dominion there are going to be 20 rookies /99 and obviously Kadri is going to be one of them.

Panini really hasn't done too good of a job with the RC distribution in their high-er end products

Wow they all have good hobby love if that's the list of 99's. Looks like it is going to be like 06-07 where only Radulov wasn't in demand out of the short prints.

Their 2 biggest mistakes IMO are:
1) Luxury Suite rookies #'ed to 899. Seriously.... SEVENTY FIVE bottom of the barrel unknown rookies on a high end product? Seriously... If you want to make cards for these guys, do that with Score or Donruss. And to those who will say that Luxury Suite was a mistake as a product, I agree.
2) Their SP or Tier 1 rookies never feature Subban, but always have at least one second-class rookie such as Hamill or Tomas Tatar (WHO!?!?).
I think they did a fantastic job on card design (except for Luxury Suite, but I could write a whole page on that), but next year they'll have to get the rookie distribution right, I agree. They had it right with Certified, Limited and Crown Royale albeit they forgot to include Skinner in their rookie list for Limited, but then they decided to focus purely on rookies and it turned out terrible. I seriously hope Dominion is going to be a fair challenge to The Cup and not a flop. It looks promising so far, but then so did Luxury Suite before it was released.
