A rookie class that would see names such as Patrice Bergeron, Brent Burns, Marc-Andre Fleury, Eric Staal, Dustin Brown and Ryan Kesler, offered here is this complete set of Upper Deck's 2003-04 Young Guns rookie card set that was released as part of their Series 1 and Series 2 flagship sets. For the six key cards mentioned previously, all found in raw ungraded form, the examples of Bergeron and Fleury both show wear to a couple of their corners on the front side and fall into the range of EX-MT to NM in our opinions while the other four (4), showing just light wear, are all a bit better and closer to the scope of NM condition or possibly better. For the rest of the set, including notable names of players such as Joffery Lupul, Tuomo Ruutu, Nathan Horton, Alexander Semin, Jordin Tootoo and Dominic Moore, the cards are all seen as being in the neighbourhood of EX-MT to NM condition with some better off and falling towards NM or better with corner and edge wear being the most glaring issues on cards that have them. Additionally, also included in a complete set of the 2004-05 Young Guns that were released during the NHL's lockout season. Mostly all either "retro" or "legends" Young Guns, the group includes the true rookies of Cammi Granato (still shows a "legends" designation at the bottom), Alexander Ragulin (still shows a "legends" designation at the bottom), Brennan Evans and Brad Fast while also displaying examples for HOFers such as Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Gordie Howe, Patrick Roy, Lord Stanley and many others. All in beautiful condition and falling into the range of EX-MT to NM and NM or better, don't miss out on this fantastic pairing of early-2000s complete rookie set offerings.
