Game Breaker

Upper Deck's Victory hockey card franchise is a low end product. That doesn't mean it shouldn't be collected, or should be looked down on. I find that the set does a number of things right that more higher end products could learn from. Yes, the card stock is standard, but the designs can be better than average, especially on the inserts.

Highlight:

The Game Breakers inserts are nothing flashy, but I don't think they have to be. The design is different, but has some time to the base set design, the insert set has a theme/purpose, the formatting of the card is nice, and it isn't expensive to get a copy of your favorite player.

The rest
Keepers:

A light day for cards to keep, but at least sets that aren't seen every day.

Traders:



Hey, it's Michael Irvin's first mug shot...didn't know they used it on a card...no...wait, this was well head of the legal troubles he endured....

As for Bobby Humphrey - this is the 5th I think so anyone want one? Anyone?

Last comment on these - I've said before the Donruss Elite 2008  set is nice, and I love the cardstock as it is just a bit thicker and holds up well - even if fingerprints on the front are clear as day.
