There's usually a race for pens leafs kings. We have a resident bruins, ducks, caps, stars fans. Rest are usually open season.

Sweet! My favorites are the Wings, Lightning, Rangers, and then probably the Hurricanes so it sounds like an open field (but with bad cards for most of those in the monetary value arena).

Quick pick any team that AAB draws for!



I've got tons of Canes cards if you wanna buy a few. Low pick steal every single time.

Nono you gotta pick one. We sorta do a decent honor system where if your in a pick or two of drafting we don't normally steal favorites. Except catwife

Of those teams I don't see anything going too high, probably the Wings will go at like, pick 10. I doubt all 3 of those will be gone by pick 15. Pens really draws a crowd. Leafs too. Dallas should go higher but never does. Kings should but AAB isn't around to take them high. Original 6 teams go in the first half usually. I usually take the Coyotes late, because they suck. Canes usually go pretty late.

The canes always seem to have a ton of hits for the value too. I always debate on taking them, but Nashville :)

This break will also be weird since you have rookies spread across a number of years. The Pacific break we did a few months ago had some whacky picks early.

Well, Washington will go higher than usual because of the possibility of an Ovechkin rookie. Maybe Boston because of Kessel or Lightning because of Stamkos, but I don't think the Lightning will go too early because of it.


Penguins will def be top 3 because ~Crosby Rookie Chance~ but the Pens go in the top 3 like every break, so really nothing new.

In breaking, every team is available that hasn't been taken already. If you choose to omit a team because it is someone else's favorite, it is your prerogative but not required. Don't be a dick.

I got a jersey, jersey autograph, and private signings (one hit per) out of three separate tins. Panini also has exclusive rights to basketball, which might explain their willingness to add jerseys. I doubt they're loaded with Kevin Durant and Blake Griffin swatches though, mostly just those from a weak rookie class.

I really hope panini makes a gigantic product loaded with every sticker and jersey they have at the end of the year since they won't have the license anymore. Or that there's something where you get a bunch more hits than originally planned.

I honestly haven't bought anything Upper Deck since Panini came along. Not looking forward to what they have to offer.

Wow you got lucky, I bought 2 tins and didn't get squat. I've only seen one other hit from 3-4 other breaks online too.

Yep it's just rookie jerseys, and no autographs at all.

Topps did this with 08-09 signatures in basketball when Panini got the rights. There were two guys whose autographed sticker cards were numbered to 8000

Somewhere I have a hard auto from some random dude in a Russian jersey that's on a hand-numbered card into the 11,000-12,000 range.

I imagine that was some poor summer intern's entire experience at Upper Deck.

...I also desire for box breaking to commence. I have high hopes for memorabilia and autographs to line my shiny new binders (or maybe at least some weird and funny looking cards like the plethora of hockey players wearing camo jackets I've found in Upper Deck retail so far).

But it would have to be something that really interests me because that card is pretty awesome :haw: Also, did you get my email?

WTF with the Coyotes sucking in this product. They are only $15 and even I won't buy them. What am I going to do, pull a Chris Brown sil or a blank Yandle or Doan jersey? So pissed they decided not to put Connor Murphy in this.
