Base #/249:
Zetterberg
Rob Blake

Gold Jersey #/25:
Cam Ward



Patch Auto #/75:
Patrik Elias




and the big one



Rookie Patch auto #/99:
Nicklas Backstrom 3-clr

No guaranteed odds on a RC AU Patch #/99. I ripped 2 cases and didn't get one.

If there are 66 rookies auto patch #/249 and 6 #/99 then at the best you have the following:

66 x 249 = 16434 level 2 rookie auto patch

6 x 99 = 594 level 1 rookie auto patch

Total = 17,028

594/17028 = .0348 or 3.5% of getting a rookie numbered to 99.

1 in 28.7 packs or 1 in 4.77 cases at the best.

So say 1:5 cases has a level 1 auto on the average.

That works out to be about 3000 - 6 box cases total. Does that sound correct?

I just double checked your math and it looks right. I wasn't sure how many level 2 #/249 rookies there were. Assuming there are 66 and you ALWAYS get a rookie patch auto then 1 in every 4.78 cases would be the odds. Have there been any tins that that haven't had a rookie patch auto in it?
