Just my opinion but Panini redemption looks to be the best again followed by ITG and Upper Deck a really far distant 3rd. Not sure why UD just doesn't get it.

The Panini stuff looks like it should be on the back of Kraft dinner boxes.

I'm coming, from Friday to Sunday. I go also to Leafs game on saturday and HHOF game on sunday. If you hear someone who is wearing Gilmour Leafs jersey, speaking poor English, it is a great chance that it's me.

All 3 companies seem to be doing very different things.
Panini seems to want to make their redemptions accessible to everyone, which is why Score is included. You can get a redemption (and a chance at an auto or ARP) with about a 30 dollar purchase. They are also focusing on stars/rookies/TO legends.
ITG is basically saying "if you like our products, we'll give you a redemption that is just like the product you'll be opening". For some people, this REALLY works. The Wendel Clark auto is a nice bonus for Decades.
UD says "This is what we've done for a long time now....so we're gonna keep doing it." Besides, people want to open Series 1 for all the great Young guns anyway, so you might as well stand in line and get a free autograph out of (at most) 75.
I've personally spoken to people who swear by each of the 3, so its a personal preference. I DO like that they are all very different. It wouldn't be as fun if all 3 had autos /75 with their boxes.

Ooo I like the look of the UD Priority Signings. Very psyched to see Salming in the lineup.
I'll be there Friday and Sunday. Gives me a chance to visit my family on Saturday!

Heading down there on Friday with my 22 year old daughter. We have just started getting involved in the hobby a year ago. My big pull this year was an SPA double Bobby Orr autograph. She picked the box, so she's the lucky charm. Will get it graded by KSA there. Looking forward to buying series 1 UD for both of us and getting a couple of redemption packs.
For all who go, have a great time!!
Regards, James.
