Whats the big deal with Crosby not wanting to sign dual autos?

Response via Twitter from UpperDeck:

@vegaspuck Once we get the Sid/Lemieux autos, they will be added back in. We are playing it safe however since we haven't got them back yet.

hmmm, are they implying everything else on that checklist will be live?

After a quick view of the CL..........zero additions to the collection for me. Dominion singles here I come.

Easily. They've only packed out the inner packs. I'm sure they have leftover filler that accompanies a case hit like a Sid/Lemieux Auto. If they come in before they're cased in the tins and sealed in the boxes, they could easily get the packs in the case hit mix and into the distribution line.

I was thinking since they said they were almost done 3 days ago they would be well on their way through shrink wrapping them.

Good only 3 Gagne cards to chase, however two of them are /10 and /5 quads with Stammer on there. This will be a pain!

It doesnt take long to get stuff sealed and cased up and shipped. They have another 5-6 days to get late arrivals

Translation 1 - if they don't get packed out we can use them as big $$$ replacements for the biggest guys in our system waiting on redemptions.

or

Translation 2 - we've learned from Panini's mistakes. Redemptions will not be inserted. You can't bait and switch if there's no switch. Thanks to those who placed orders based on this news.

Aaaaaaaand UD puts it right in my pooper with 4 shields of Roy.

yeah, Roy, Drury, and Dalpe seemed to be overused this year with the shields. much like Brandon Yip with any auto set all year long.

Heatly has an auto in this release wonder if it's live, I'm still waiting for his 07/08 Cup Foundations #'d /9, waited 3+ years so far. Would be nice if UD would give an update once a year or so, is it a UD issue or Heatly.

Actually you can I read it on mine earlier today. When you click the link and the Upper Deck site loads there should be a "Print" option about halfway down the page, that will open the whole checklist that you can scroll through. Try this:

Question, there was a pic of a Linus Omark gold parallel /25 on the pack out preview pics, but there is no Omark cards on the checklist anywhere that I could see. Can anyone shed some light on this for me

Whats the big deal with Crosby not wanting to sign dual autos?

What i know is that its his family that down want his auto with another player or so, i find it silly but its been like this forever.

In 05/06 his Dad had him sign an exclusive with Upper Deck after the SpX release I believe that warranted no other player signature on a card with Sidney. I think that's the story I heard, but I'm not 100% sure.

The story I heard was that he had this condition in his agreement from day one and when they found out about the Gretzky/Crosby SPx dual his camp went crazy. It is pretty silly, all the best athletes like Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Tiger Woods, Wayne Gretzky, Bobby Orr and others will all appear on multiplayer autograph cards but Crosby's "handlers" figure he's more special than anybody else I guess.

A 'goalie' style tag on a Vanek card???

Hmmm makes ya wonder just a bit...???

 

[jagrnyr68]

The Cup looks great to me this year compared to others, but the checklist....not so much. Seems like a lot of ARP's are a big miss...well i guess that isn't really UD's fault. But ik i would be disappointed if i got a tin and the big hit was this:

Cup Quads - Maxim Noreau/Marco Scandella/Justin Falk/Cody Almond

ik they're incorporating RC's more, but some of these are a little too much. some of the dual shields are pretty weak imo as well. Jamie Arniel/Daniel Paille, Kyle Clifford/Stefan Della Rovere? Stefan Della Rovere actually has 3 shields lol....

cmon, i was hoping for just 1 Callahan card this year, maybe a Trio or Quad or something. o well, i'll have fun chasing a few of the Stewarts, hopefully i can get the Honorable Numbers
