8 Packs of Prizm Hockey
I ended up buying 8 packs of Prizm hockey at my LCS. The good news - I hit BOTH autos! The bad news - the autos were of Michael Kostka, (28 year old "rookie" for the Leafs/Blackhawks), and Mark Pysyk, (stay at home defenseman for the Sabres). I also hit a Pekka Rinne Net Defenders "refractor". If you want to see pics, check the bay.
The product looks nice & the "refractors" look amazing. However, I just don't see the value. I know I can't complain getting both autos in approximately 1/3 of the box but I'd rather these companies cut down on the number of "scrub rookie" autographs and put some more "established" players in their place.

Agreed. I was disappointed with my 10 packs. Not enough value for the price.

I can tell you, Pysyk is HARDLY considered a "scrub" in Buffalo. You might get some offers if you make that available....the fans really like him.

Will the rookies be priced about the same as those from O-Pee-Chee or Score? Trying to decide if I should go for some, or wait for UD's Young Guns.
Dave and Adam's has boxes for $93.95 right now.

YG's are always the hottest and are usually more sought after than RC's in other series.
