So just some back story first...
At the last spring expo I deceided to crack 2 books of superlative and get a couple of the TO spring expo redemption cards. After seeing the online checklist I was was psyched the chance to get a minium 3 peice jersey up to a 6 peice jersey card. Out of my 2 books of superlative I had some nice patch cards outta 10 and 30 I beleive but my big hit was a Patrick Stefan first round jersey /9 3 clr though :| BUt the redemptions I was given started this particular mission complete. If I remember correctly I got a 3,4 and two 5 peice jeresys. I was pretty happy with the player combinations.
So after this I went through the expo and started tradeing my book breaks and redemptions towards the 6 peice jerseys. By the end of the weekend I had about 8 I think from the set of 17.
So fast forward to the fall expo of last week I was schooring the grounds asking dealers left and right if they had superlative redemptions and if they said yes I asked about my last peice need "motwon madness' the red wings 6 peice/9. I had no luck just a couple I had it's but sold it :|, So I was getting a little fearful that I would be on a constant ebay search weekly to find it, but then like a beam of light from the heavens i aproched a dealer who is well known here (sacrebleu), I told him I needed the one on his sweater :wings: and I was floored when he said he had it:eek: BUT not on him:| BUT he could make it avl to me.So at this point I took his email down and negotiated the deal and today it arrived...

So in closing thanks to all who helped, Sacrebleu,Holygoalie and Icebox are 3 who helped that I remeber off hand, there are others but there screen names escape me.
Thanks for the view and if you didn't guess there NFT :dance:
 
So now I definately know where one of the 9 Broad St Bullies is... hopefully one of the remaining 8 appear at some point - the only 1 I need.

Congrats on a sick sick sick collection of cards!
 
Very, very nice!

ITG made a mistake though, but to their defense, it's a French word. The word "Guardien" is actually spelled "Gardien", but I guess the 320 million English North Americans won't notice that, so it's all good! :D
 
You're very welcome! Now I'm regretting not completing that set, lol. Oh well, still have a few in case I change my mind....:| -Mike
 
Thanks all for the comments and...

Howe1850-The russian stars was the one that drew me into the set.

enforcersonly-best of luck to in finding the Broadstreet Bullies one!
Are you one away from the "flyers set" or the "whole set"??
gocango- I never noticed the typo before? guess thats why I failed french class ;)
