So I bought some Ultimate last night and pulled this absolute beauty

Now my question is does anyone know if this is a rare hit or like a hard to find insert?

I have only seen one closed and it was a Gretzky. But haven’t seen any others.

This one is actually the tougher Orr to find.

The Group C mentioned earlier is a Blackhawks autograph falling 1:146 packs on average.

The one you posted is the Ultimate Legends HOF Auto set which falls 1:200 packs on average. So very nice nonetheless.
 
The four HOF AU's (Gretzky, Orr, Messier, Yzerman) are very tough to find. I have seen a few Orrs floating around, although they were seeded pretty high in packs. All of the players depicted have surfaced on eBay, with Orr and Gretzky seemingly being more plentiful than Yzerman and Messier.

The value is all over the map. The fact that Upper Deck did not number them as part of the Ultimate Legends 1997 Auto set, even though they are the exact same design, has hurt their collectibility a bit. Some of the 1997 Legends set builders are avoiding them, others (like myself) are trying to include them in their set quest, although they are not a priority for me, due to the cost.

It's 1:125 packs on average for the HOF AU's, 1:333 each for the individual players, although I have seen more Orr and Gretzky's than Messier or Yzerman.
 
How do those odds make any sense. Overall odds 1:125 packs and Orr is the easiest at 1:200 packs. Has MATH changed since I was in school...…..oh maybe metric????

Okay, just an example and because I like math - assume there are 10000 packs. For the 1:333 group, there would be about 30 total cards. For the 1:200 group, there would be 50 cards. Overall, there are 80 cards available. So the combined odds are 80 cards in 10000 packs, which works out to any one of the cards in every 125 packs.

It is possible! :)
