Here are some timestamps to hopefully improve your experience! 3:59 = First Pack 24:27 = Outro

[@JunkWaxInvestor]

Awesome video. I just opened a box of this last night. Should have the video uploaded later today. Fun packs to rip but wow that gum makes a mess!!

[@jeffmooney3991]

I love watching the old packs being opened. It was so simple back then just 1 tops set, and 1 opc set. It was easy to put sets together to be honest alot more fun, and cheaper.

[@michaelkrutz5737]

Awesome old school break. Bummer about the Linden. Mmmmmmm.... 30 year old cardboard flavored gum, good stuff.. lol. I vote eat a piece. 😁

[@TheHabsGuy]

LOL! I tried one after the break... It was terrible!!! Thank you for watching 😁

[@111highgh]

I ate a piece of gum with a box of 1990-91 Topps, that I opened up last year. I think it gave me cancer.

[@taurnguard]

To avoid some of the dragging, he starts opening packs at 4:00 . You're welcome.

[@BeautyBreaksCards]

Nice break! I’ve have a bunch of these 1990 O-Pee-Chee cards! I got them from my uncle when he collected in the early 1990s! Keep making great videos!

[@TheHabsGuy]

Thank you! That's awesome, love the product for sure

[@dlouisg9950]

Good ol’ days... I also remember getting OPC minis (no gum).... ps, that Larry Robinson is one of those OPC paint jobs where they painted over the Habs colors to get the Kings... same for Jim Kyle, Salming and a bunch more.

[@TheHabsGuy]

Amazing, I'll have to go back and look at them! Thank you so much for watching

[@tomb.9258]

Steve Smith was the only name you got right!!!

[@gizmoh1374]

Thero Fleury is his rookie card

[@TheHabsGuy]

I was unaware of that! Thank you for letting me know

[@theavsguy9046]

The hockey card industry used to be so different back in the day.. Great break!!! Interesting! 💯

[@TheHabsGuy]

You are right! Thank you

[@illscrill9]

Yeah was fun u can all be cool back then now I’m considered a low end or medium end guy lol 😂

[@SilverzeroBreaks]

Ahhh trip down memory lane! Love it! The cards were so different back then! So bizarre that it comes with gum! It does not look appetizing at all! Ugh hate how some of the gum can ruin the card too. Hope you can get that properly off the Linden card! Don't eat the gum! XD

[@TheHabsGuy]

Thank you for watching! The industry has really changed over the last 30 years... For the better I believe. I tried the gum after the video... I do not recommend. Tasted terrible! Oh well, that's on me for trying it... LOL!

[@thatsmallrockshop]

Back then cards were for kids. Alot of us bought the cards for the gum and hoping to get our favorite players. A favorite player or favorite team card was a bonus to the gum.

[@victorsummers5933]

Nice Video...I've acquired some of those '89-'90 OPC. It's something to see so many at once. TY 4 Sharing'

[@TheHabsGuy]

Thank you! Definitely some nostalgia

[@jeffmooney3991]

That was Theo Fleury, and Brendan Shanahan rcs also i believe

[@111highgh]

Shanahan second year.

[@111highgh]

I rule.

[@DMCproductionsPro]

Fun different break, really crazy to see how much the industry has changed with inserts and ‘premium’ products

[@TheHabsGuy]

It sure is! Thank you for watching

[@illscrill9]

Dampen a cloth a bit whipe that linden and then quickly dry it lol sick throw back video i remember these i still got a bunch great video 👍

[@TheHabsGuy]

Good idea! Thank you so much for watching

[@dr.exclusive3776]

Cool video. Tough break with the Sakic.

[@TheHabsGuy]

Thank you

[@freedomsufferer]

Yup at this point I was still collecting heavily. I had everyone from this year at one point. Now you can het To sets,Leetch,Sakic rookies for peanuts. That's BS really because the calibre of the player should still hold some weight! I did enjoy you taking a stab at some of those names haha but you did well man. Thanks for the memory lane break!

[@simonmarshall19]

Brian Leetch , Theo Fleury & Joe Sakic rookie cards

[@stevegobbo2737]

Wow, that sucked. The best card in the set ruined by bubble gum. I heard a rumour that if you put the bubble gum card in the freezer it will break off easier. The Theo Fleury and Tony granato cards are good rookies that you riffled through very quickly. How much did that box cost you? Good video

[@TheHabsGuy]

Thank you for watching! Might have to put that rumour to the test. I wasn't aware of those rookie cards! A bit of a noob with this product for sure. I'll definitely go back and sleeve those cards! Box was 40$ Canadian.

[@hattorihanzo2275]

OPC gum can be brutal. Seems worse that Topps gum. I've opened '83 baseball and the gum is clean but I've seen '87 and '91 OPC hockey ravaged by moldy gum.

[@dlouisg9950]

If you need a Bobby Smith RC, I have one listed on eBay.

[@TheHabsGuy]

What's your eBay? I'll go check it out :)

[@dlouisg9950]

@@TheHabsGuy 'dlouisg1978', I don't have much on there, but I've got a good amount of doubles from the 80s and early 90s that I'd be glad to trade if you are looking for anything specific

[@TheHabsGuy]

@@dlouisg9950 perfect, I'll take a look!

[@KevinJL]

That looks so new wrapped

Do some dollarama hockey cards

[@TheHabsGuy]

Good idea. Thanks for the request!

[@theeRetroRhino]

I’ve just found your channel. Love it! Keep up great work. I’m a long time Bruins fan. Got respect for the greatest team of all time Canadiens. Have a great day!

[@TheHabsGuy]

Thank you so much! :)

[@ripemall4548]

Opened this as a young ripper!

[@dbgaming274]

No recap? :(

[@TheHabsGuy]

No :( It's back in today's video though! :)

[@sabinoruiz8527]

Great video and nice break too bad about the gum cards.

[@quintonbowbeer5110]

love the old packs and cool video

[@111highgh]

Nice video.

[@marksantucci4230]

Let's Go Canadiens? do you have any older players like 1970's up to 1987?

[@111highgh]

You're a fart.

[@paulwall1981]

Was this the set with Joe Sakics rookie card in it?

[@paulwall1981]

What were the high cards I this set?and what were they worth.

[@Shadowmaster82311]

Literally every name you said is wrong. Still great video.

[@corndogg4279]

Hey just going to say the gum might be about the same as it was 30 years ago horrible 😆

[@TheHabsGuy]

Tried it... Yep!!! TERRIBLE. 😝

Faster than me! 😝

[@chrisblanchette457]

Ah man! I was so crying when that Sakic rookie card turned out to be a gum card 😭😭 that's a real shame. Great video though! how much did that box cost if you don't mind me asking?
