You make a very valid point about Valamov. The only caveat is that he probably came on strong in the NHL a little too late for the folks at Upper Deck to choose him for a #'d to 99 candidate. On the other hand, I believe that Mason had great success pretty much throughout the entire 2nd half of the season, so it would be justified if he made the cut.

on the sell sheets, Mason is /249 so I doubt Varlamov would be one
the /99 will probably be Stamkos, Brunnstrom, Wheeler, Turris, Voracek and maybe Okposo or Filatov

Good call on Brunnstrom....probably right, I just completely forgot about him. Also, I think it'll be Filatov because he has one of the highest amounts of potential among these rookies. In THN Draft Preview, they have a huge article on Filatov....I think he's going to be real good. Looks like all of those losing seasons paid off for the Blue Jackets. If that team stays together during the next few years, they will be real good.

How about Schenn? Not one of the top rookies but then again Tlusty wasn't last year and he was a /99

I think they see really great potential in Schenn and that's why he is listed on most of the /99's this year and will most likely be in that group when The Cup is released. I'm STILL scratching my head of Tlusty, though.

The Sell Sheets are only made to show the design, no guarantee the Mason is #/249 even if Mason is pictured as #/249 on the sell sheets. I hope the "NHL rookie of the year" will be #/99.

I think that is a little crazy if Pogge gets the 99 nod. However, I must admit that I've been reading tons of good stuff about him in THN. They are likening Pogge to Toronto's answer to Montreals Carey Price....so The Cup might be putting him at /99, thinking about the future.
