More repacks from Shoppers Drug Mart!
All of which were 06/07 Parkhurst with something visible behind it. I may have completed the set, but that doesn't mean there won't be interesting cards still hiding.
The first pack was probably the dullest for me. But it does show off the nature of the set. While some Hall of Famers can be found in the set, such as '70 inductee Tom Johnson, a lot of it is "I remember that guy!" types.
A dupe already? Sigh. But that's offset by a Kitchener Rangers alum opening things off in Stevens. I can't automatically call it a dupe in that collection by memory, so that's a win! Also, the Grim Reaper appears! There isn't a lot of appearances of the teams that debuted in that era. There's Doug Wilson on the Sharks, and a couple Avalanche appearances that might technically count. And that's about it. But it makes sense for this type of release.
The final one has two North Stars appearances, but sporting different eras of jerseys. Sometimes, collation can result in fun coincidences. Kocur also continues the PIM guy content from the previous pack.
This is a 30 card set. It better be filled with huge names. And it is. There's even a reverse retro jersey in the mix.
I was kinda curious as to why that Wild/Habs game would warrant its own sticker. It's dated, so I can find our that the Wild won easily that game, 7-1, but there seems nothing out of the ordinary with individual stats.
That shiny McDavid base sticker looks to be the biggest card of these packs, at least when it comes to going via COMC value. I'd guess that any Bruins/Leafs playoff themed card, even if it isn't that Game 7, is going to be painful for awhile still.
Bit there's a bunch of cards I grabbed at Shoppers. And there you have it!
