SPGU: How's safe is your junk this year player/team collectors?

[phate]

Definitely looking for all of the letters in Kobasew's name.... keep me in mind if you pull or see one.

Just 3 cards for Higgs. A SIGnificance auto, and inked sweater jersey and patch.

Well, the options didn't really suit my choices. I can't say I like the product every year, but this year I did. A nice little stack of Stoll cards to chase, most obtainable, some not.

2006-07 Upper Deck Game Used SIGnificance Jarret Stoll S-JS
2006-07 Upper Deck Game Used Authentic Fabrics Jarret Stoll AF-ST
2006-07 Upper Deck Game Used Authentic Fabrics 8's Jarret Stoll et. al AF8-CEN
2006-07 Upper Deck Game Used Inked Sweaters Jarret Stoll (?) IS-JS
2006-07 Upper Deck Game Used Dual Inked Sweaters Jarret Stoll/Ales Hemsky IS2-HS
2006-07 Upper Deck Game Used Inked Patches Jarret Stoll (?) IS-JS
2006-07 Upper Deck Game Used Authentic Patches Jarret Stoll AF-ST
2006-07 Upper Deck Game Used Authentic Patches 8's Jarret Stoll et. al AF8-CEN
2006-07 Upper Deck Game Used Dual Inked Patches Jarret Stoll/Ales Hemsky IS2-HS

The two with (?) after them say Stoll on the checklist, but actually picture Jason Spezza, so who knows.

Wow, after reviewing the poll, I am a bit shocked.

Karvin voted for the first choice. Why?

It isn't too bad for me, I just have Zajac and Stafford and all of their rookie parallels. I think the Rookie Exclusives are a nice looking card from what I have seen already, will be nice to add those to the collection.

Bourque is definitely in all high-end singles this year, as is shanny with his octo-gj /3, 1/1 octopatch.

Half the fun for me is just updating a wantlist I'll never complete. I look at it, and just laugh at how much crap there really is of Ray in the world. My wantlists just remind me that I should be more than satisfied with the cards I have now.

If you'll notice, most of those voting "whimper" or "downsize" are the player collectors...

And Karvin, man, you can't really tell me that you thought 02-03 SPGU was a winner. Compared to the other editions of this product?

01-02 was amazing. The quad jerseys to 10 were HUGE then. Inked and Dual Inked sweaters. The patches, the autoed pads, skates, jerseys, etc.

02-03 was um, yeah, not as good, I'll concur there, although the First Rounders patches was a great subset.

03-04 was much better than 02-03 for sure though. Last year's was very nice, especially the Quad patches and Signature Sticks. Also, the Auto Drafts and Statscriptions were some of the nicest, maybe THE nicest, sticker autos I have ever seen.

I guess what were asking is what happened in 02-03 Karvin?

This year's looks good so far, I'll reserve final judgement until I get me mits on some!

I'll be only going for the M-A Pouliot true RC.

If I can find a killer deal on his parallels, I might pick em, but I'm spending too much right now on my Reprints set, and all the higher-end stuff is coming, with expensive Pouliot true RCs.

I only have two to chase. Something funny with those cards though:

Simon looks like Sami and vice versa Would love to know if the jerseys match the names or the pics.
