Random breaks with scans

[Sacrebleu]

I broke these on Thursday but didn't get a chance to post them until now:

I started by opening 11 packs of 01-02 BAP Signature Series that someone had taken one pack out of and got the following:

Gold autos:

Dempsey
Roest
Hrdina

Regular autos:

Graves
Denis
Afinogenov
Garon
Mezei
Renberg
Kallio
Biron

so the autos basically blew but fortunately I hit a memorabilia card:

Teammates Stevens/Niedermayer and the Niedermayer is 2C (barely).

I then moved on to an open box of BAP Signature Series 02-03 that someone had hit a Nash jersey out of and some pretty non-descript autos out of 4 packs leaving 8 packs remaining. As I already have this set I'm not sure why I bothered opening those especially since the chance of getting a memo card was gone:

Buyback autos:

01-02 Johnson gold
01-02 Daniel Sedin regular

Gold autos:

J.S. Giguere

Regular autos:

Rick Nash
Blackburn
Reinprecht
Ronning
Morrow
Aebischer
Cole

Then there was a box of 02-03 Parkhurst sitting there so I cracked that and got:

Bronze Parallel:

Jamie Storr 80/100

Silver Parallel:

Mike Modano 9/50 his jersey number

Rookie:

Pascal Leclaire /500

Memorabilia:

Beauty of a 4C stick jersey card of..... Alexei Yashin blech

Next I moved on to a fresh box of UD1 and picked 9 packs and got:

World Cup Tribute: Bouwmeester/Foote
Youngstars Swatches: Raffi Torres
Young Guns: Gretzky, Robitaille, Denis Brodeur
Hardware Heroes: Raycroft
3 Stars: Roy, Sundin

so 8 out of the 9 packs had something.

Finally he had two packs of Luxury Suite left, I only had fundage left for one but I think I chose wisely:

Travis Moen RC /500

and

Ryan Smyth Blade/Ales Hemsky Patch 1/10

the blade looks like it might have been autographed as that looks like an ink mark to me or I may just be imagining it.

here are a couple of scans of the highlights:

thanks for the read and Happy New Year to everyone!

Dave, very interested in the Smyth/Hemsky.
The two I've seen on ebay also have a blue mark on the blade (I think Quincy won one). It MAY be an auto but I'm not sure.
LMK what you need.
Thanks,
Shaun

Howdy stranger! Glad to have ya back. Thought I scared you off after buggin' you for that Horton Nice breaks by the way!

I have been really busy of late because I agreed to cover one of the offices that I work at while the other two Docs were on vacation. Having to keep 5 hygienists happy while seeing a boatload of regular patients as well as emergencies was a little bit more than I anticipated. Now that this week is over I can breathe a bit again. You aren't the only one bugging me for that Horton . BTW, my Parkie breaks were absolutely BRUTAL- no autos of any kind in the three boxes. After that reaming I didn't even want to see hockey cards anymore but you see how long that lasted.

I'd throw my hat in the ring for the smyth/hemsky, but there's little point.
So I congratulate you on the great pull!
