2 Tin Cup Break

[northendhockeynut]

I wasn't sure if I'd be breaking any Cup this year, number of reasons that I won't get into.
Me and the wife were out today doing the usual errands and she says "lets go see the guys at the store" well you don't have to twist my arm more then once.
You have to love a women who likes opening boxes of hockey cards.

Tin #1 ...
Kessel Platinum /25, Fuhr base, Welch Blk D plate black 1/1, Ramo 3clr /249,
***J.R. Limited Logos 2 clr /50 GONE ***

Tin #2 ...
Koivu base, Bourque base, Thompson /249, Welch Platinum /25, Booth 3clr /249

Now the hit from Tin #1 ...
Vanek Enshrinements auto /50 ... I really like the design of these cards

Hit from Tin #2 ...
Kessel Honorable Numbers 3clr /81

Thks for looking and comments always welcomed

Very nice breaks - especially on the Kessel(s). After seeing about 100 of these brekas posted on various boards, I think UD must have been contractually obligated to include a Ramo RC in every third tin of the product; it's probably the most pulled RC that I have seen if my memory serves me correctly. Also, please have your wife give mine a call some time so I can also benefit from the same kind of "spousal encouragement" .

I think I have seen more Kopriva and McKee RCs than Ramo, but either way, something's up with the goalies...

speaking of Ramo, if you're looking to move it, let me know

Thks for the kind words, and my wife thks you also

We have been together for 32 yrs and I've been collecting on & off for a lot longer and until last year she would always say "I don't understand the interest in your hobby"

Since pulling a Crosby RC from a box of SPx, she felt the excitement and now says "I understand"

Now she is right in there busting packs, boxes and cases with me

Btw the tin with the Kessel HN was hers

any rookie goalie beats the heck out of pulling a rookie defenseman.

Update ...

Everything else is available ... FS/FT
I would be looking for Cup cards in return of these Blackhawks players ...

Bobby Hull, Tony Esposito, Tuomo Ruutu, Brent Seabrook, Cam Barker, Duncan Keith, Rene Bourque.
Havlat & Khabibulin cards only if they are pictured and jersey/patches are a Hawks uniform.
Also 06/07 new guys ... Michael Blunden, Dave Bolland, Troy Brouwer, Adam Burish, Dustin Byfuglien
