hello all! it's been a bit since i've been able to get on here, but i've been going through past posts this past couple of days catching up. hope everyone is doing well...hockey is back, so that's at least a start! i know Chris has fantastic luck with the last pack, so i thought i would give it a whirl (although mine is a little different.)
there is very little hockey for purchase around me, and funds have been tight lately so i haven't picked up anything until tonight. i was at target and wandered over to the cards and noticed tons of baseball, football, and basketball...and a few blasters of artifacts hockey. i've been around long enough to know better than to purchase artifacts blasters there was one, lone variety package (12 random packs) for $9.99 and it almost looked out of place tucked in with all of the other sports. below is a pack by pack highlight/breakdown. i think i did all right...
1991 Ultimate Draft (1 pack) - nothing of importance
1991-92 Score (1 pack) - nothing of importance
1991-92 Topps (1 pack) - nothing of importance
2007-08 Victory (2 packs)
- base: Lundqvist, Ovechkin
