SPGU? Any info?

[TheGriceBoys]

Has anyone heard anything on this product yet?

I heard it is a late February release and this year they will have cards with 5, 6, 7, and 8 swatches!

Remember how hot the quads were last year?

Can anyone confirm anything I mentioned above or does anyone have something to add?

Thank for the info and replies fellas.

Looks like there are octo jerseys or patches and only 3 copies of each!

Also I see they brought back the base card auto parallels. Hopefully they look better then last year's crappy afterthoughts.........

Oh yes, I see the By the Letter cards also make a repeat appearance. Junk kickers those are for player collectors. Anyone wanna bet I get my jewels hammered and Blake is in there this go around? Grrrrrrrr....

Maybe they should rename the product. . .

SP Photo Shoot
SP Event Worn

I wonder if they'll include the heritage classic set or did they use up all the swatches from those crappy AK jerseys in the 'official nhl game' jersey cards in artifacts

The Letter Marks Autos. could be cool, if they had a Cheechoo or Michalek I would probably try to make the nameplate out, especially if they are not game used it would keep prices down..

Ya never know. I was going to do a nameplate set once with photo shoot type stuff and it still was going to cost me a ton so I gave it up.

People get nuts on those cards sometimes game worn or not?

But then again you could get lucky since it's Sharks stuff!
