Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction September 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 9/19/2023
Proving to be one of the the best rookie classes in the modern era of the National Hockey League and coming only two years after fans were blessed by the likes of Sidney Crosby and Alexander Ovechkin, the 2007-08 group of first-year talent was highlighted by the trio of Carey Price, Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews with all three proudly featured here in this complete assembly of Young Guns rookie cards from Upper Deck's 2007-08 Series 1 and Series 2 releases. With the previously mentioned Price, Kane and Toews cards all having have graded Beckett, the Toews leads the way with a GEM MINT 9.5 designation and subgrades of Centering 10, Corners 9, Edges 9.5 and Surface 9.5 while the Price and Kane both sport marks of MINT 9 over their labels with subgrades of Centering 9.5, Corners 8.5, Edges 9.5 and Surface 9 on the Price and Centering 9.5, Corners 8.5, Edges 9 and Surface 9 on the Kane. Additionally, the first year cards of Bobby Ryan, Milan Lucic, Sam Gagner and Nicklas Backstrom have also all been graded by Beckett, each earning MINT 9's for their efforts with none of their listed subgrades falling below a highly respectable 8.5. For the rest of the set, all found in raw ungraded form and presenting in the same condition range as the graded offerings in our opinion after inspection, notable examples are present for players such as Tuukka Rask, Ryan Callaghan, Dan Girardi, David Krejci, Nick Foligno, Marc Staal, Jonathan Bernier, Brian Elliot, Jaroslav Halak, Ondrej Pavelec, David Clarkson and Brandon Dubinsky. One of the most coveted and sought after Young Guns sets in recent memory that is chalked full of star power, don't miss out on this glorious opportunity to add it to your all-important collection.
