Yep...but I think he was excited about the Sign of the Times and skipped over it. Kind of like when Phil was skipped over the US team and was on social media "Feels like I should be doing something else tonight....."
Not a bad box all things considered. It's always nice to pull an inscribed. I haven't pulled one since 17/18 myself. Hopefully every box has the autographs in them. I had one box with nothing in it and now I have to wait 14 to 16 weeks to see what Upper Deck is sending me. Great video, can't wait for the rest to see what you get in the case.
Its been a while since I have opened SP Authentic - but it was nice to see what the cards look like now - might be something to invest in and open some ...
Regarding Shestyorkin. It has to do with transliteration of the Cyrillic alphabet. In Cyrillic, his name is Шестёркин, and it is in particular the letter ё that is transcribed differently. I believe the sound is closer to yo, and the IIHF has standardised it transliteration since 2011 using this table (webarchive.iihf.com/fileadmin/user_upload/PDF/TranscriptionRUS.pdf). In this ë should be transliterated into yo. However, in the international passport standard, ë should be transliterated as e. I think NHL in most cases use the passport standard, hence why it becomes e in some names Semen, Fedorov, Kovalev, while it according to the IIHF standard will be Semyon, Fyodorov, Kovalyov
I didn't know that this Igor Shesterkin was a sought-after card, so I had to go back and double check that I didn't pull his young guns update in the 3 boxes of SPA I recently purchased. I did not...but I did pull his signed future watch RC. Nice surprise to find out that he's not a nobody!
At my local LCS, when they got their first shipment, it was $159 a box. But when they got their 2nd shipment in, the cost upped to $179 a box. Won’t lie, I was t happy.
If he pulls another exclusives Zamboni driver I am going to write a screenplay about him. ..not Ayres..but Zeree! I'll have Justin Trudeau as the main character.
Makar isn't a case hit. I got a Barkov Draft Sign of the Times inscribed, Cale Makar FWA and Mackenzie Blackwood Future Watch Auto Patch in 3 boxes within one inner. Also luckily hit 2 other future watch auto patches from 2 other boxes randomly! Good luck thus far (going to stop while I'm ahead). Still no Quinn Hughes though :(
I'm a huge Bruins fan and I I collect the Bruins FW's but for some reason Kulman doesn't excite me. He's a good solid player but I think he will be over shadowed by the other Bruins rookies once they get a little more development.
Do you sell your stuff on ebay, or at a card shop? Also, I'm glad to see you're being a bit more positive. That inner break was pretty unpleasant to watch
