07/08 the cup is my fav.
That’s a tough one. I’d have to go with 08/09 Artifacts as there’s really nice pulls in every box, and even though it’s a bit more expensive you usually get your money’s worth with the memorabilia.
hi!
my favorite hockey box is 05-06 upper deck series 1 hockey. i like that product b/c of the great young guns that it had like Crosby and Ovechkin. Almost every pack had an insert, and you got 3 jerseys per box!
so ya….thats why i like it

My favorite product is 2007-2008 UD Series 1 had so many good young guns.
My favorite is Luc Robitaille’s Topps RC – I have one in a nice display with a photo-puck and it looks freaking awesome. In fact it’s one of the few Hockey Cards that I have on display, since my beloved Kings stink on ice lately.
Favorite Box was 2005-06 The Cup Hockey. It had Sidney Crosby and Ovechkin RCs along with all the GOATs…
My favourite hockey card box would have to be 08-09 ITG Between the Pipes. The hits in this product are absolutely fantastic. I seen many boxes opened and the hits are always sick.
My favorite box of all time is 01-02 Topps Heritage. I loved the look of the cards and it’s actually a set that I ended up getting completely signed in person based on the look. With Datsyuk and Kovalchuk rookies it just was great. Thats along with the Stadium Club set from the same year just based on the photography are amazing.
My favourite box of cards is 07-08 Hot Prospects!! I love this product because you get a nice RC AU Patch /399 or /199 in every box andthe Rookie Class was very good last year!
Thanks and I hope I win!

My favorite product is ITG Between The Pipes. Absolutely love the past three years of the stuff. Great chances to get nice autos and GU of great goalies and a chance to see the up and coming crop of goalies, love it.
Thanks, Sarah
My favorite Hockey product has to be Trilogy, especially 07-08 — I love the look of the cards!
80/09 sp authentic
89/09 sp authentic
My favorite hockey card box is definitely 97/98 Zenith Hockey. Pinnacle’s “Dare to Tear” concept was way ahead of its time. Collectors of A&G and Topps Treasury know the feeling of tearing a card to find an even cooler card inside (it’s a gamble, sometimes it’s a common). I remember busting boxes of this stuff to make both sets (the 5×7 & the regular set). Eleven years later, it has lost a little bit of its luster… but it still contains both Lecavalier and Luongo’s key rookie cards.
favorite product is the up has the best patches and awsome looking cards
*******My favorite box is the 2005-06 The Cup because it has Alexander Ovechkins best rookie card and I love the way he plays the game.*******
My favorite Box is 2005-06 The Cup Hockey. It has Sidney Crosby and Alexander Ovechkin RCs! That product is just sick with great hits!
My favorite box is probobaly 08-09 artifacts. They have alot of greats hits 3 per box and 1 auto. You get an insert/jersey in every pack cant go wrong wiht that

My favorite box would Be ITG Between The Pipes 06-07, I am a HUGE Goalie collector and this product goes over and beyond my expectations, every box ive opened has been outstanding, It has a reasonable price per box which is also a great aspect!
I would have to say my favorite box is 05/06 The Cup. The cards are fabulous in that set. Real quality memorabilia stuff!!
I must say though my favorite brand is still Pacfic. The made so many awesome set throughout the years. Luxury Suite, Adrenaline, Calder, Heads Up etc..

1995-96 Upper Deck Ice box
Hi,
my favorite box I ever got was my first box ever: Upper Deck 05-06 series 2. I was 16 years old. I absolutely loved Alex Ovechkin even if I was (and still am) a big habs fan: the first box I ever bought with my own money was AWESOME : Alex Ovechkin 088/ 100 parallel. The man of the shop took an hour to convince me to sell it to him and he bought me it for 375$. And even more special, in the same box, a Ryan Getzlaf Rookie Ink that I still have in my possession. These two players are now my favorites and I collect them, even if Alexander The Great’s cards are very expensive. So Upper Deck series 2005-2006 are my favorite boxes because I never, in 5 boxes, got a card that was not worth below 40$, and got two cards in the first one that I will never forget. And by the way, what is ironic is that I saw MY Ovechkin card (the 088/ 100 parallel) again in one of my best friend’s collection! I was amazed by the coincidence!
Francois, Sherbrooke, Qc, Can
*two little errors: it was 375$ and the code was 088/100…
My opinion for the best box of all time would be………….. most definitley 05/06 UD series 2 retail. You would get 30 packs for a very decent price. And the best part was in every single box you hit a rookie (subset) of Crosby or Ovechkin. Never Disapointed! Always Happy! Wallet Happy!
Great break! My favorite was an early 2000′s Upper Deck (I forget exact year) where I pulled a Mike Bossy jersey card. He is one of my favorite Islanders.
My favourite box of hockey cards would have to be 2005/06 Upper Deck ICE. I always pull quality stuff out of those boxes. UD ICE is my favourite brand every year. I just love the plexi rookies and autos. Not to mention the level 1 rookies being some of the most sought after rookie cards of the year.
At the risk of really making myself feel old, I have great memories of busting the 90-91 upper deck. For me this was the good ole days. Looking forward to the weekend, my dad picking me up and taking me to the local hobby shop and leaving with a box of the UD to split with my little bro. We were always chasing the ever elusive rookie cards of Federov, Lindros or a card of the Great One. Who knew the 1st two would be such a bust? I know the cards of todays era have much more to offer as far a g/u and auto but the memories of a time when we were all trading at lunch time and it was a passion not a business is really what draws me to this product.
my faveorite box would have to be 05/06 upper deck series 2
ovechkin got me interested in hockey again and getting the young gun in my first box was a big thrill
I’ve always loved Be-A-Player. I got into hockey cards in the late 90s and I became a huge Avalanche fan. Although I never pulled a Roy, Sakic, or Forsberg auto, I’ve never given up on Be-A-Player and their numerous autos per box.
Score 95/96 because it was my first
my favorite hockey set is 06/07 spx. it had some good rookies and a nice design to the cards
90/91 upper deck was my fav…
My favorite box of all time is 07-08 Upper Deck Ice. Bough several box and always got amazig cards. Also the design is just incredible.
Love ICE product.

Hi DacardWorld,
My favorite box is 2007/08 Upper Deck NHL Rookie Class Hockey Hobby Set because it amazing rookie cards of current NHL’s like Pat Kane(Blackhawks), Tyler Kennedy(penguins), Niklas Backstrom (capitals),Jonathan Bernier(Kings),and Bryan Little (Thrashers).
Hi DACARDWORLD,
My favorite box was the 1990/91 Upper Deck Hockey. It was the first set that I started collecting since I was a kid. Way overproduced but got me excited about the hobby again.
Any box from Pacific. They made some really nice looking Hockey cards. Hockey cards….baseball cards well, dont get me started
I would have to go with 08-09 Sp Game Used. The pulls are incredible. A little on the pricey side but totally worth the investment.
08-09 SP Game Used, there were some great pulls
08-09 upper deck champ and ice. it has some nice pulls and graphics
I am usually a guy who loves memrobillia cards but that was until I opened a box of 08/09 O-Pee-Chee hockey. This is by far my favourite set because of its fun. Theres an insert in every pack!. The design of the cards is also sweet especially the retro cards! That is why 08/09 O-Pee-Chee is my favorite box!
my favourite box is 08-09 black diamond hobby box because of all the hits you recive
I’m picking the 2002-2003 Upper Deck Set. We have a ‘shirt-tail’ cousin- Francois Beauchemin who plays for the Ducks and that’s his rookie card. He comes from Sorel and our family came from there and although my grandfather changed the spelling of our name, my boys, who play hockey still think it’s cool that they’ve got somebody in the NHL who they can consider being a relative (I think it’s pretty cool too).
06/07 SP Authentic Hockey, SP is always great, but this year had added value because of the insertion of the 05/06 stuff, like buying 2 boxes for the price of one.
07-08 upper deck series one- soooooo many good players
My favorite is 06/07 Flair showcase because it’s cheap and you get at least three hits one auto two jerseys
My favorite box was 07/08 upper Deck Series 2 only because i got a Mat Sundin printing plate
Heya Guys!
My fav hockey box of all time is an oldie but a goodie, 79-80 OPC. This is for two reasons- first, obviously, because it’s Gretzky’s RC year, but secondly, because it was the first year I really began collecting hockey cards.
I had grabbed a couple of packs of previous years, but 79-80 was the year I really dove in and tried for the set (I was a few cards short). So it remains my fav.
