1980 Topps Hockey Packs!!!

[@cdefine100]

Awesome old packs. I love how you savor each card like a fine wine lol.

[@tdsportscards429]

I love your comment 😁. Sometimes old cards almost feel like that!!! I appreciate your support. Thank you for watching

Great video and fun rip. Enjoyed seeing the 80 Topps Hockey Cards. I don't own any 80 cards so it was nice to see them. Always nice to see Phil Esposito. Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed.

[@tdsportscards429]

It’s a great set, and it was nice to recognize some of them, as you mentioned, like Esposito. Glad you enjoyed, thank you for watching 😁

[@jkjkjohnny]

Great break! That year was loaded with great rookies - Messier, Bourque, Gartner. I like the look of these cards. Nice Lafleur all star card. Nice Bossy. I opened your package -- THANKS!! It was amazing. We will post the video soon. Thanks for sharing. Have a great weekend.

[@tdsportscards429]

It is a pretty nice set. No Messier in the Topps set though. But we found some good ones. I’m glad you enjoyed the package. I’m looking forward to seeing you open it!!! Thank you guys so much for your support 😁

Hockey has always had the most colorful uniforms of all sports; more so for the 70s and 80s. It’s great to see old cards of teams who have moved on to greener pastures like the Nordiques, Whalers and Rockies. Thanks for bringing me back to my 80s childhood routing for the Bruins. Nice pair of Espos…

[@tdsportscards429]

Oh I totally agree, I love the old uniforms, especially of the teams you mentioned. I always love going back to the old stuff. So happy you enjoyed 😁

[@Collectorholic]

Fun rip. I opened these back in the day but I scratched them off. Worth much more unscratched. Enjoy your weekend!

[@tdsportscards429]

Oh, I definitely scratched them back then. As kids, we wanted to know who these guys were 😁. Thank you for watching, enjoy your weekend as well

[@shawracingcollects6624]

Hey David, Hope you are having a great week, Great rip. Love the design and layout of these. Got some nice rookies and team stars. Thanks for sharing. Jeff

[@tdsportscards429]

Thank you so much Jeff!!! I appreciate the comment. I hope things are going well 😁. Thank you for watching

[@PeepsWaxPacks]

So incredible to see this opened! Love the Bossy! Great stuff.

[@tdsportscards429]

I appreciate it!!! Fun set to open, just a bit tough with the names 😁

[@PeepsWaxPacks]

@@tdsportscards429 I would have done way worse 🤣

[@tjmacvintagecardsnostalgia648]

Another rip that brings back so many memories. We didn't have as a hard a time knowing who the players were because we took a dime and rubbed them. LOL. I forgot about the poster inserts. They are fantastic. Nice Esposito last year. I am surprised as many unscratched ones exist. Thanks for ripping these. It was so much fun going back in time.

[@tdsportscards429]

Funny, my father called me last night when he saw the video, and asked me why I didn’t scratch off the names. I told him the video would’ve been double the time if I did that 🤣. I guess 1980 was poster year for Topps, since they included them in the basketball packs as well. This is a nice looking set. I prefer the OPC, for if anything, making it much easier for recognition. Still a fun break. I’m hoping next time maybe I’ll know 5-6 of the guys are vs the only 4 or 5 I knew here 😁

[@tjmacvintagecardsnostalgia648]

@@tdsportscards429 you did better than I would have done.

[@jeffnossan1083]

This was the year I had outgrown buying packs as I turned 15. I was happy to recognize 70 percent of the players by faces and Jersey numbers. As a Sabre fan would have loved to have pulled that poster from the last pack! Didn't even know they did those posters but topps did inserts previous

[@tdsportscards429]

That’s pretty good you could recognize all those players. This is right around the time I started really watching and collecting hockey. I had to cheat a bit to look up most cards 🤣. Thank you so much for watching

[@bastek.]

Hello. Very nice cards. OK channel. Big like and support my new friend. Have a good weekend.

[@tdsportscards429]

I appreciate it!!! Thank you watching and checking us out. Enjoy your weekend as well 😁

[@FreedomsuffererCards]

What a fun rip!! Absolutely loaded class. The scratch off was such a ridiculous idea lol but still amazing cards!! Tiger Williams will always be a Leaf to me. Sweet Salming! Well done!

[@tdsportscards429]

Tiger Williams… I find him in every break I do of the 70s and 80s!!! I really like the design of these, just such a challenge with the scratch offs. Thankfully it was a failed experiment. I appreciate your support, thank you for watching 😁

[@Diamond.Princess]

I will say for 100% certainty that this is the first I’ve seen these cards. Thanks for showing T&D 🥰❤

[@tdsportscards429]

And they have no names…. Thank you for watching 😁

[@Diamond.Princess]

@@tdsportscards429 yeah, strange. You handled it well though 🙌❤

[@tdsportscards429]

@@Diamond.Princess aww, I appreciate that, thank you 😁

[@ripemall4548]

Amazing rip brother! I wish I had some of these for sure! I lost so many cards over the years! Take care!

[@tdsportscards429]

I’m missing a bunch of my cards too. I’m just happy I still have all these packs!!! Thank you for watching 😁

[@muskokacardcollector]

one of the best sets IMO

[@tdsportscards429]

It’s a great set, just a bit of work to figure out who’s who 😁. Thank you for watching

[@undraftedplayer]

Great video David. Even if i don't know a lots about hockey, i loved to watch the video ! It was a challenging video in order to find the names of the thoses former players...smile. All the best my friend and Happy Following sports.

[@tdsportscards429]

Yes, this was tough having to figure out each player but, it was fun and it’s a nice looking set. Thank you so much for your support 😁

[@zachscollections]

New sub here. Came over from jkjkjohnny's channel. I've never seen this set before. The scratch off thing is certainly unique. Thanks for sharing!

[@tdsportscards429]

I appreciate you checking us out. Yes, the scratch offs are a bit different and quite the challenge!!! Thank you for watching and I subbed you too 😁

[@metsrule]

Eat the gum! So odd they left the names off! Using scratch off? Lol. Sweet Esposito, too bad gum ruined cards. These are the "guess who" packs. Nice Bossey. 1980 to 1984 were prime Islanders years. Fun rip, thanks buddy.

[@tdsportscards429]

Oh my god no!!!! After the video, I examined it and every piece had mold spots!!! Topps thought It was innovative to try the scratch offs, that it would be fun. Apparently, that didn’t fly. It failed to the point that when the OPC was released just after, it was eliminated. But yes, “guess who” is a great way to describe these!!! I think I recognized like 4-5 cards, maybe??? It’s stressful opening this set… Thank you again for your support 😁

[@metsrule]

@@tdsportscards429 Lol!

[@sportscardsd-tor]

I dig the posters, weird how these cards did not carry the players names. No Netminders lol 🥅

[@tdsportscards429]

The posters are cool, something different. Yeah the no names thing didn’t go over too well with the public, so this was a one time thing. And you’re right, no goalies!!! Funny… thank you for watching 😁

[@marksantucci4230]

Nice Bjore Salming , Al Mcadam , Dale Mcourt , Rich Ladouke , George Ferguson , a gum stain on George's card , Jim Rutherford , Stan Weir , Rick Keough , Very nice Esposito , nice Jets , nice Rick Seiling , Mike Eves , Reed Larson , Grant Mulvy , very nice all star card Guy Lafleur , nice Rockies , nice Mike Fologino , Darryl Sittler , Tiger Williams , answer hasn't changed still love the old jersey's? Do Bruins and Islanders fans think that's an odd looking uniform Esposito is in? number 6 is Pierre Mondou , is that last card stiil the Atlanta Flames or they already moved and it's a Calgary card?

[@tdsportscards429]

Yes, I definitely still love the old jerseys!!! I wish some of these teams were still in their original cities. At least we can open old cards and still admire the sweaters 😁. To answer your last question, the Flames were in Atlanta through the 79-80 season so the picture on the card would be in an Atlanta uniform. The 80-81 season was their first in Calgary. This set doesn’t mention the city the team plays in. Thank you for watching 😁

[@jasonredmile1336]

Are they worth more if you don’t scratch the name

[@tdsportscards429]

I do believe they hold a bit more value because scratched is like a mark on the card. I’m not sure if I’ve seen any scratched cards graded higher than 9
