Over 2 years ago, u/ZebraCakeKing posted this Bobrovsky card to the subreddit, and I have been chasing down these case hits (1:240) ever since.

Finally this week I added the last two cards to my collection, which were Kaprizov and Pastrnak that I just decided to overpay for since I have been so close to completing the set for a while.

I wish Upper Deck made more of these style of cards, sort of like the "Manga" inserts that Panini and Topps make for basketball and baseball. Another similar set that comes to mind is Fanimation, although I think Upper Deck stopped making these (and I think they are slightly less cool).

I'm excited these are coming back for a 4th straight year in the 2025-26 SkyBox release. Since there has not been a single Shark in the checklists for 22-23, 23-24, or 24-25, my personal top chase as a Sharks fan is Celebrini, although I can see that card being more expensive than even what I paid for McDavid or Crosby shown here.

Thanks for reading and happy collecting!

Not a PC player though, so if someone wants to tag the Canada dude Ill happy help add it to his collection lol.

Searched up some comps after I pulled this and it’s surprisingly low. Not that this is a crazy pull- but it got me thinking about some undervalued players/cards/sets in general. Thought I’d see what you guys thought might fit in that category!

…and The Quest for The Cup continues…

Sadly not one of my habs, but finally I hit a diamond premier, those are underrated

Really happy to have completed the YG collection for Series 1! Just added my newly acquired Doughty YG. Just wanted to share it with you all. Good hobby!

Aside from Celebrini and Smith being such exciting players to collect, the Sharks have some of the finest canvas cards. Mukhamadullin's canvas signatures is a nice little add. Next up, Nabokov?

my biggest hit from loose packs. Ive never gotten this lucky. 2025-26 series 2 hobby pack.

Should I quit now ?!?

I have cut esy back on epack. But it seems they're trying to rope me back in.

First hobby box ever.

Pretty happy. Guessing this is way above average

My wife favorite is the troy terry that is translucent????? Very cool.

I won my fantasy hockey league this year, and got one of my grail cards at a show yesterday. Got this for less than what a box of extended would cost me. Think I'm going singles only the rest of the year.

Looking for guidance, I just pulled this out of a series one box. It was in the middle of a pack but it has an indention going across his shoulder on the upper left of the card. Should I contact upper deck about this or just keep it as is? Thank you for any help.
