2026 Adventures in Repacks - Part 1 - A Great Way To Start the Year

 The same repack types as the year closer.

And here we are!
All flagship in this pack - but at least there's a reverse retro jersey in there. Even though it was the opening card, and therefore not a surprise. 
And the contents of the Value Pack. Looks like I'll have a hit coming my way!
And the appearance of a 1981 card puts this repack easily ahead of the previous one. It was completely unexpected. Getting the great name that is Steve Konowalchuk is a bonus.
Here's that hit. It might not be a huge name, but he's still playing in North America, and yellow is a fun swatch colour to see on a Penguins card. 
Guess the Superstar? Is it a historic one in Jagr, or a current one in Boeser? 
Timmy's card! CHL card! That's enough to offset the blandness of any 21-22 entry. 

A relic? A 1981 entry? Steve Konowalchuk? Yup, that's what I want from a repack experience!

There you have it!
