Box Break: 2009/10 O-pee-chee Hockey

[maverick*sports]

Once again o-pee-chee continues to be the biggest and one of the most popular sets every year. This year is no exception as it hits the streets opening day tomorrow. Similar to years past with a few new adjustments and additions. Overall I thought it was a great break, although as my usually luck lately, no Joe Sakic cards at all for myself.

Rookies: 1:4 (Weber, Wandell, Galiardi, Machacek, Rechlicz, Hendricks,
Bitz, Vishnevsky, Salcido & MacDonald)

Legends: 1:4 (Cherry, Langway, Bucyk, Mahovlich, Vachon, Esposito,
Wilson, McSorely, & Esposito)

Retro Variations: 1:1 Highlights Regular (Oshie, Kovalchuk, Gagne)
Rookies (Joensuu, Peltier, Drewiske,
Vishnevsky, Segal)
Legends (Gretzky, Savard, Howell,
Duff, Orr, Roy, & Howe)


FOIL: 1:4 (Commodore, Bayda, Enstrom, Lehtinen, Bolland, Orpik, Hensick,
& Galiardi (R))

Foil Parallel: 1:36 Zajac #085/100

All Rookie Team Foil Insert: Berglund

IN Action Foil Insert: Koivu

Record Breaker Foil Insert: Chara

Season Leader Foil Insert: Ovechkin

Schenn, Vlasic, & Stamkos

A little confused on these as they're supposed to be 1:36 with only an autograph parallel. I'm guessing the added a regular 1:4 packs version.

nice break

 

[TMCards]

I like the vintage look to the cards, decent box Andrew!

 

[RGM81]

Nice to see the first OPC break of the season!

 

[cards-gotta-go]

Nice break, but the design of those cards is TERRIBLE.

And Don Cherry on a "LEGEND" card? Yuck.

ud site says it came out sept 11th ???

 

[bruinsman]

and what are the odds of an auto?

 

[bto3105]

It has a similar look to the old Kraft Dinner cards. Reguardless,OPC will again be a set collectors break and do very well


Congrats

I can use the Galiardi and Hensick Foils, as well as any other Avs stuff. If you're interested in trading, I have some extra Sakic stuff kicking around.

No auto or triple jersey in a box, that is not good. I thought the triple jersey was 1 per box, while the autos are 1/case

 

[numbern9ne]

The jerseys are 3 or 4 per case.

They fell off the truck at my shop today. Looks like they hit every branch on the ugly tree coming down.

Got a pack, nothing impressed me today.

 

[JDogOwns]

I must ask you if you pulled any Shane O'Briens. LMK Thanks. The box was also decent as your /100 was at least a good player

 

[FrozenInferno]

Definitely doesn't seem as attractive as last year's OPC, not for me this time around but still a decent box break!

 

[leafschik1967]

Good news that those Canadian Heroes cards are a little bit easier to pull!

It got changed a couple of weeks ago to 9/29 - then distributors got a notice not to send out before today so they arrive tomorrow for a 10/1 launch (some don't listen I guess )

and what are the odds of an auto?

Autos are 2 per case (combined, meaning either an OPC Signatures or a Buyback - or maybe one of each )

The jerseys are 3 or 4 per case.

Quad jerseys are stated at 3 per case


Overall I like the look - can't wait for my cases to arrive tomorrow!

Are you sure that's not the regular? Similar to last years' Winter Classic, they had a foil look to them too - you're right, though...just a regular (which looks like what you got) and the autographed version

Not a bad start - who else got it early?!! :beer:
