Fleer made this product line popular earlier in the decade, and once Upper Deck acquired Fleer a few years ago, I was hoping that this product would survive.

Thankfully, it did.

Hot Prospects hockey boasts some of the most sought-after autographed rookie cards in the hobby, thanks to the inclusion of multi-colored patches on most every card coupled with a low print-run.

This year, Hot Prospects boxes guarantee at least one serial-numbered autograph patch rookie card, as well as a plethora of parallels and serial-numbered subsets and rookie cards.

In our box, we pulled two autographed patch cards including Carey Price! We also pulled three game-used memorbilia cards including an Alexander Ovechkin game-used jersey, which was one of our best pulls.

Here is what you might find in a sealed hobby box of 2007-08 Fleer Hot Prospects Hockey:
