Yep, my local store has it in stock already...

wow the rookies don't look as good as they did in the sell sheet.

I'm usually not a big fan of excessive foil on cards, but those rookies could definitely use some gold/silver/foil trim around the swatch areas. They look kinda dull especially compared to last year. On the sell sheet I thought they looked quite sharp.

The Remnants looks good though

They look lame in my opinion. That's just what I want on a hockey card, a big huge eye sore taking up half the card that says "Jersey Jersey Jersey Jersey" with 4 bland jersey pieces. The only thing that could be worse is if it said "Off The Store Rack Jersey Off The Store Rack Jersey Off The Store Rack Jersey Off The Store Rack Jersey".

the remnants look pretty nice. this backstrom is sweet.

Vinny has red in his patch /35 card. Team Canada, All-Star or UD Grab Bag?

Probably an MLB jersey or something.

Looks good to me. If anyone has any Colton Gillies of this stuff let me know

 

[Burner]

Penmanship and the Duos look really nice... even nicer than some of the similar cards on the Cup sellsheet! I'm really disappointed in the looks of the rookies though:

 

[cards-gotta-go]

I like last year's rookies better...
... but that Orr/Bourque duo is very purty.

 

[BigBarracuda]

I agree with the general sentiment. The rookies look like SweetShot rc's turned on their side (with jersey jersey jersey jersey for added tackiness).

 

[sharkaholic707]

I'm sorry, but does it say "Authentic Game Used" (jersey) on the rookies? Kinda like how on the back of the BAP rookie jerseys, it says "authentic game used jersey" used in a rookie photoshoot, LOL.

 

[brado8236]

These cards are FUGLY. Huge disappointment compared to last year's stuff...

Looks like an 07/08 All-Star jersey.

 

[Burner]

Looks like an 07/08 All-Star jersey.

Don't think so. The font is way off and the lettering on those jerseys were white, not red with white trim

It's from the future - a Habs jersey.

 

[Funkmobile]

....are you serious.....????

 

[paulxing]

I know! so many white jerseys! Seriously though... it's /20 at least?

 

[FrozenInferno]

I think he's referring to the same combination on both years (Spezza/Staal/Bergeron)

I must say the Induction inks are very nice cards, may have to chase a MacInnis
