Upper Deck Inks Alexander Ovechkin to Exclusive Deal

[gregmal05]

Even though the deal wasn't finalized before The Cup's release there are still Ovy redemptions.

Yea but those were still only for the lower end sets. I do not think he is in any of the bigger ones like LL, HN, SS, or EE.

That is great news to this collector! I pulled this auto from Trilogy and have a Team Marks auto from SPGU outstanding as a redemption.



Congrats to UD!

It does suck though for that dude who supposedly upon hearing OV was not signing anymore decide to ditch a ridiculous high end OV collection.

Maybe it was the good time to sell. With more and more Ovechkin autos over the next years, do you think value will go up? Maybe it already peaked, and selling right now is the good thing to do. Just buy the newer stuff for less money.

This is great news, unfortunately they could not work something out prior to the release of this years Cup. UD at least has been making progress, as they also were able to get Lundqvist to start signing again. Hopefully Parise is next.

If they ever get some dudes like Forsberg, Sakic, Shanahan, Kariya and Dryden, 5 guys who have NEVER signed for them, then it might seem they are actually trying.........

Oh don't worry, knowing UD they will go back and create/already have made those cards and will release them through redemption replacements.

So long as they don't tell anyone, what's the problem :)

Yea personally I would not care if they did. I've never had such an issue with Brodeur cards, but in all honesty would be thrilled if something popped up that I did not even know existed.

I can tell you personally from seeing THREE unchecklisted UD Black 1/1's of Kopitar pop up within 10 days of each other it is ZERO fun when it is a guy you collect...............trust me, no bueno.
