2016-17 Upper Deck Series 1 Ceremonial Puck Drop #CPD-1
Mario Lemieux featuring Alexander Ovechkin & Evgeni Malkin
This is one of the tougher and more distinctive inserts from 2016-17 Upper Deck Series 1, featuring Mario Lemieux, Alexander Ovechkin and Evgeni Malkin together during the ceremonial puck drop.
The Ceremonial Puck Drop insert set was exceptionally difficult to pull, with stated overall odds of approximately 1:7,200 hobby/e-Pack packs, or roughly one out of every 25 Cases of 2016-17 Upper Deck Series 1 Hockey.
Condition
From my observation, the card appears Near Mint or Better to my eye.
I have included as many clear photographs as possible so prospective buyers can closely review the exact card being offered, presentation and condition
Please use the high-resolution photographs as the primary description of the card and its condition.
As with all raw cards, condition is subjective and no specific professional grade is guaranteed or implied.
Shipping & Handling
I take considerable care when packaging cards for shipment and package them the way I would want a card from my own collection to arrive.
The card will be securely packaged using:
- Penny sleeve
- Rigid top loader
- Protective team bag
- Thick heavy-stock cardboard for additional rigidity and protection
- Non-adhesive painter\'s tape with easy-open tabs where appropriate
- Durable padded bubble mailer
No adhesive will come into contact with the card or holder.
My goal is to keep the card secure, protected from movement, and well supported throughout the shipping process.

Why This Card Stands Out
This card brings together three of the defining names of their respective eras on one exceptionally tough Upper Deck insert.
Mario Lemieux remains one of the foundational figures in Pittsburgh Penguins history, while Evgeni Malkin became a cornerstone of the franchise\'s next championship era. Adding Alexander Ovechkin, one of the most recognizable and collected players of his generation, gives the card unusual crossover appeal for Penguins, Capitals, superstar, Hall of Fame and player collectors.
Creating a unique combination:
- Mario Lemieux
- Alexander Ovechkin
- Evgeni Malkin
- Extremely difficult Ceremonial Puck Drop insert
- Approximately 1:7,200 overall pack odds
For collectors who appreciate unusual Upper Deck inserts, difficult pulls, and cards featuring multiple all-time players, CPD-1 is a particularly distinctive piece from 2016-17 Upper Deck Series 1.
More hockey, and other collectible cards are being added regularly.
