2017 Adventures in Repacks - Part 31 - Fleas!

It has been too long since I dropped by the flea market, so in addition to the tasty treats I picked up, here's the $5 brick of cards I got.
2016 Platinum - Jeff Skinner - One of the visible cards was this Rangers alumni card on top. It was a need, so this seemed like the logical purchase. Jeff played in his 500th game last night, a loss to the Jets.
2016 Platinum - Drew Doughty
2015 Contours - Logan Couture
2015 Contours - Tyler Seguin
2015 UD - Portraits - Jakub Voracek - To start a theme from this repack, there were a surprising number of inserts and parallels.
2015 Contours - Thomas Vanek
2015 Contours - Filip Forsberg
2015 Contours - Jordan Staal
2012 Black Diamond - Brendan Smith - A double diamond insert as well in this repack. Even nicer is that it is a rookie of a player still in the league.
2013 Black Diamond - Mike Ribeiro
2013 Black Diamond - Andrew Shaw
2013 Black Diamond - Alex Pietrangelo
2016 Parkhurst - Centennial Salute - Braden Holtby - Another insert. The 'pose with the puck' is a favourite theme on hockey cards.
2016 Showcase - Red Glow - Vladimir Tarasenko - And the first of my parallels.
2016 Platinum - Tyler Johnson
2013 Rookie Anthology - Teemu Selanne
2016 Platinum - Jack Eichel
2013 Black Diamond - Shea Weber
2016 Parkhurst - Centennial Salute - Alex Ovechkin - Another insert. I'm not the biggest fan of etching on cards like this and Black Diamond, but it looks nice here where Ovechkin is only in a small part of the photo.
2016 Overtime - Steve Yzerman - A Legends card out of Overtime was also pretty unexpected.
2016 SPA - Marc-Andre Fleury
2010 Zenith - Jamie Lanngenbrunner
2016 UD - Shining Stars Blue - Joe Pavelski - This insert looks even nicer as the blue parallel, to go along with the Sharks colours.
2016 Platinum - PK Subban
2013 Select - Dustin Brown
2013 Select - Alexandre Burrows
2016 Trilogy - Ryan Getzlaf
2016 Trilogy - Torey Krug
2016 Trilogy - Sam Bennett
2016 Trilogy - Tyler Seguin
2013 Trilogy - Shane Doan
2013 Trilogy - Dino Ciccarelli - A classic uniform.
2011 Artifacts - Logan Couture - And here's the one-per-brick hit.
2016 Trilogy - Blake Wheeler
2016 Trilogy - Martin Jones
2016 Trilogy - Tuukka Rask
2016 Trilogy - Anze Kopitar
2016 Trilogy - Dylan Larkin
2014 Trilogy - Claude Giroux
2014 Trilogy - Vladimir Tarasenko
2015 Portfolio - Cory Schneider
2015 Portfolio - Jarome Iginla - A nice helmetless photo from what I'll assume is the All-Star skills competition.
2015 Portfolio - Patrick Sharp
2013 Ice - Pekka Rinne
2013 Ice - Matt Duchene
2013 Black Diamond - PA Parenteau
2013 Black Diamond - Brandon Saad
2013 Black Diamond - Devin Setoguchi
2013 Black Diamond - Jimmy Howard
2015 Fleer Showcase - Johnny Gaudreau
2016 Showcase - Red Glow - Tyler Seguin
2016 Showcase - Red Glow - Pekka Rinne - Two more parallels. The red glow parallels are so much nicer than the regular, obnoxiously gold base cards.
2015 Showcase - San Gagner
2013 Score - Gold - Niklas Kronwall - This is how you do gold on a card and not have it look abrasive.
2016 SPA - Morgan Rielly
2016 SPA - Tomas Tatar
2016 OPC Update - Rainbow - Milan Lucic - Shiny!
2012 Artifacts - Pavel Datsyuk
2012 Artifacts - Daniel Alfredsson - Although this has to be a dupe for the Alfie binder, I still love getting cards of my fave player.
2012 Artifacts - Mike Modano
2012 Artifacts - Ryan Nugent-Hopkins
2012 Artifacts - Jordan Eberle
2016 Showcase - Rick Nash
2016 Showcase - Henrik Zetterberg
2016 Showcase - Kris Letang - And the final card. As I said, obnoxiously gold.

That's a darned good $5 brick. The inserts and parallels throughout really provided a good variety in the break. I probably won't be heading back until December, so this will hold me over nicely.
