Went to the LCS with no real intent of buying UD2, just wanted to pick up a few cards there, but of course we know how that goes.


Took the last 7 loose packs out of an opened box, those yielded:


OPC Update Base - Phil Kessel
OPC Retro RC - Robby Fabbri
Rookie Materials - Daniel Sprong

Young Guns:

Brendan Ranford
Chris Wideman
Ryan Hartman



Now onto the box:


OPC Update Base - Patrick Sharp
OPC Update Retro - Patrick Sharp
OPC Update Rainbow - TJ Oshie
OPC Rookies:
Brock McGinn
Ben Hutton
Chris Wideman
Matt O'Connor
OPC Retro RC - Ben Hutton

Was really hoping for a better assortment of OPC guys, but oh well.

Canvas:

Michael Frolik
Tyler Bozak
Ryan Getzlaf

Portraits Rookies:

Connor Brickley
Chandler Stephenson
Radek Faksa
Slater Koekkoek

Again, a really awesome group of names there too.

Rookie Materials - Malcolm Subban

Young Guns:

Markus Hannikainen
Vincent Hinostroza
Frank Vatrano
Garret Sparks
Linus Ullmark (PC!)
Jake Virtanen

Canvas YG - Shane Prince


Overall, not a bad break. Obviously was hoping to pull an Eichel for the PC, but happy to get an Ullmark, and Virtanen is one of the better guys to end up with.


Everything besides the Ullmark YG is available - would like to get some Eichel's back, also need Stempniak Exclusives & High Gloss from this if anyone has them.

Thanks for looking, comments appreciated as always!


Currently looking for:

Cal Clutterbuck, Lee Stempniak, and Paul Stastny
Also Current Sabres Rookes

Not a bad box overall, could be better. Did you get in any breaks with Buffalo or just too expensive?

From what I have seen they have not been bad for case breaks. Saw a printing plate 1/1 in one case and the acetate YGs are really nice looking. The foil and black opc cards are nice looking too.

I didn't bother. I think I saw them for around $200, and while you'll probably get 2 Eichel YG's, I just don't have that coin for a GB. I'll wait awhile until it dies down, and then pick up and Eichel for my PC. It's not a huge rush because I know there will be a ton available. It just wasn't worth it for me to take a shot at an Exclusives or High Gloss of him or Ullmark. Odds are slim.

I actually paid less for this box than I did for my Series 1 box. But yeah I feel you. The YG class for Series 2 is brutal

Yeah, I have been feeling that way with both Edmonton and Buffalo in a lot of products, just way too overpriced for the risk.

I got into random on DA and got the Blues, case break, hit the Fabbri POE so not bad on that front.

Not bad at all there. And yeah it's annoying because like in SPGU Buffalo was like $100 in a case break for a shot at an Eichel /15, when they have pretty much the least hits in the product. Annoying because I really can't have the team I want in group breaks this year, but oh well.

Yeah, I know that is why I don't buy Pittsburgh a lot of times as they are way overpriced for the chance at hitting the Pens when most of the hits are rookie geared. There are Sids and Marios in some stuff but very limited and probably wouldn't hit for the price.
