When Upper Deck put in redemptions for rookie autographs inside 2011-12 Artifacts boxes, people were trying to figure out which player corresponded to which roman numeral on their redemption card. Upper Deck has finally released the checklist matching the players to the roman numerals and that checklist looks fantastic.

I     Ryan Nugent-Hopkins     Edmonton     #d to 99
II     Gabriel Landeskog     Colorado     #d to 99
III     Cody Hodgson     Vancouver     #d to 99
IV     Sean Couturier     Philadelphia     #d to 99
V     Brett Connolly     Tampa Bay     #d to 99
VI     Mark Scheifele     Winnipeg     #d to 99
VII     Ryan Johansen     Columbus     #d to 99
VIII     Adam Larsson     New Jersey     #d to 99
IX     Mika Zibanejad     Ottawa     #d to 99
X     Jake Gardiner     Toronto     #d to 99
XI     Erik Gudbranson     Florida     #d to 99
XII     Matt Read     Philadelphia     #d to 99
XIII     Teemu Hartikainen     Edmonton     #d to 99
XIV     Joe Colborne     Toronto     #d to 99
XV     Matt Frattin     Toronto     #d to 99
XVI     Craig Smith     Nashville     #d to 99

There are some pretty good rookies on this list and the fact that they are numbered to only 99, might make these some early sought after rookie autographs this season. We just wonder how long it will take Upper Deck to fulfill these redemptions.

But that’s not all, Upper Deck is waiting for more rookies to skate to fill the wild card spots so hopefully they pick some great wild cards as well.
