2009-10 O-Pee-Chee Tin Pt.2

Alright. Time for part 2. These next cards are all shiny foil inserts. So without further ado..

#AST11 - Marian Hossa (All-Star Insert)




#TW2 - Alexander Ovechkin (Trophy Winner Insert)




#RB5 - Jarome Iginla (Record Breaker Insert)




#TC7 - 2008-09 Chicago Blackhawks (Team Checklist Insert)



#CBH16 - Bobby Clarke (Canadian Heroes Foil Insert)



#CBH17 - Patrick Roy (Canadian Heroes Foil Insert)



I really like the look of these shiny inserts. As opposed to scanning them, when I take a picture of them I think they turn out really cool looking.

I'm assuming that because it's an Olympic year, that's why O-Pee-Chee is doing the Canadian Heroes inserts, which is cool and all but how about 30th anniversary insert with the 1980 USA Hockey team? Just a thought.

I don't like the base cards as much as last years set, but I really like the inserts, but if you are a set collector-type person than the big "O" is your best bet. Because like last year, the amount of base cards in the set is just massive. I'm not sure but I think it's again somewhere in the 600s if I'm not mistaken?

In closing. Even though the weather this year prevented me from having the Christmas that I took time off of work for, it was nice that being stuck at home wasn't boring, since I had a tin of sweet cards to sift through.
