Back To Duos

 I figure it may be best to go through the rest of the Timmies Duo cards I got from my mom last year. THese are the packs that I got at Christmas time along with a bunch of "regular" Timmies set packs, but those will be for another time. Will this bunch of packs be as good or better than the first bunch from my birthday? Only time will tell, but let's start with three for today.

Let's take a look at both sides of the cards today, with the fronts up first...

Well, the Matthews/McDavid Rink Rivals card is the clear winner today. Not only a Leaf card, but getting McDavid in as well is a great fit. As much as I am not an Ovi fan, have to give him credit - I thought the last year or two, he was fading fast, but this last season has been a whirlwind for him, and in a good way.

The backs for the base cards look much like the front. As for the inserts, decent enough designs and write ups. At least the Rink Rivalry noted for McDavid and Matthews is one of just awards - can't say they ever seem to be at odds in a real rivalry, other than being top stars of their respective teams. I'm fine with that route, just not a real rivalry where the two players go out and really compete against each other.

A solid day of all new additions marks for a great start.
