Are these Sedin cards consider Rookies??

[TheRussianRocket]

Just got this pair for $3, and need a little more info on these, are these considered as Rookie cards or Pre Rookies cards?? I also got a Luongo and Matt Cooke type one.

[Kessel_fan_87]

I'd like to know as well since I got the same ones lol

[Wickabee]

No,
If I'm not mistaken the only true Sedin RCs are from the 97-98 Black Diamond set that also has Luongo and Lecavalier.
The Luongo from this set (98-99 UD Choise?) is also not a RC, but the Matt Cooke is his RC.

They are not Rcs.
They are from 98-99 the real rc are from 97-98 Black Diamond.

You are correct, sir!

darn lol, would have been cool if they were RCs, thanks for the help guys. anyone know how rare these cards are? what are the odds on getting them?

You see a lot of cards from 98-99 sold as Sedin RCs on Ebay and several are marked "rookie" on the card, but they aren't. A lot of the same things happen with Luongo cards (especially the one from that set and his "Young Guns" card).
I will say 98-99 is my favourite year for UD/Collector's Choice. I'd say $3 for the pair is pretty fair.

The only other set that features the Sedins in their rookie year is 1997-98 Swedish Collector's Choice, but as I understand it Swedish releases don't qualify for RC status.

Not very rare.

Walmart has been selling boxes of that set for several months now..... for $8 (gives you an idea of how low-priced the cards are).

You wouldn't get a whole set out of a single box. I'd imagine you'd see these cards show up every two or three boxes..... but they're certainly not SPs, or tough to find.
