Well, I went out and visited my compatriots at the Transit Rd store in Williamsville today, went just to visit, but came out like a bandit. Three boxes total today:
#1 09/10 Heroes and Prospects - If you've seen any of my other breaks, you know I really REALLY like this product, for a very good reason. Well today gives me even more reasons to like it....
Nazem Kadri Autograph
Michal Neuvirth Autograph
Landon Ferraro Jumbo Jersey Black - Looks like stains, blood?
Jonathan Bernier Jersey Black - Nice 2 Color
Now, this would normally be #1 hit any other box...
Evander Kane Jumbo Emblem Silver 1/3 - Almost the whole puck from the CHL Logo!!! -GONE
But....here's hoping Taylor Hall is taken Second Overall...
So I next decided to get the last 08/9 UD Ice box they had...I just had a hunch it'd be good...
Rookies:
Alexandre Bolduc /1999
Tyler Sloan /1999
Shawn Matthias 999/999 - Kinda cool
Matthew Halischuk Fresh Threads
Alex Goligoski Fresh Threads Patch 23/25
Mikkel Boedeker Glacial Graphs
and the really good hit of the box - Level 1 James Neal 62/99
So I've done really good at this point, and decided to press my luck with a pretty low risk box...2005/06 ITG Heroes & Prospects Series 1 Arena...a little old $19.95 special box
I've always loved the way this product looked and figured why not, at least try and get a base set. Now autographs are 1 in every 48 packs in Arena, so 1 in every 2 boxes. There are 190 different autographs, 175 singles and 15 duals, so the odds of pulling any 1 particular autograph is 1 in 9120 packs. So I get about 18 packs in and one of the cards is sticking to back of another...its an autograph. As I slowly peel the cards apart, I see a Rimouski Oceanic and their logo...yep...I was shaking
