2020-21 Upper Deck Fat Pack
Needed something to open and with no football available, bought a fat pack of 2020-21 UD. Guess they don't put rookies in these. Not that I would know who the rookies were (unless the card has the RC on it). I haven't bought any Hockey since the mid-90's. Pretty boring pack: 25 base cards an only 1 insert. But based on the BV, I guess my insert was a decent one: Young Guns Canvas Philip Broberg (since I don't watch hockey, have no idea who he is).
I collect Andre Johnson, JJ Watt, Redskins who played in the 70’s & 80’s, HOF’ers and Texas A&M Aggies.

Young Guns are the rookie cards. You pulled the insert for the rookies

Thanks for the info. Seen a lot of talk about the Young Guns, so I assumed it was an insert set.

The Young Gun is the legit rookie card. The canvas version is the insert

The canvas versions of the Young Guns are a lot harder to pull as well, and are usually worth more.
You did well, especially for one pack.

Shows you how desperate/bored I am. Haven't bought Upper Deck Hockey since 1990-91. And I bought 3 Donruss Racing fat packs as well.

Upper Deck hockey is actually pretty good value, usually. I have hit almost all of the major Young Guns over the years and they usually book/sell/trade very well.
