Newest Hockey Arrivals Provide Answers to the Panini America Autograph Contest
In this special, multi-faceted Saturday-morning post, Panini America officials will unveil some of the sweetest new arrivals coming soon to their roster of NHL products (most notably 2011-12 Elite Hockey and 2010-11 Contenders Hockey). In the process, they’ll also provide the answers to the “Guess the Autograph” contest they started earlier this week in conjunction with the start of the 2012 NHL Playoffs.
So below you’ll find a gallery that includes: Must-have autographed Rookie Cards from Gabriel Landeskog and Philadelphia Flyers hat-tricking sensation Sean Couturier . . . legendary signatures from the likes of Stanley Cup champions Mark Messier and Eddie Belfour . . . and some premier Passing the Torch pairings such as Bryan Trottier/John Tavares and Doug Gilmour/Adam Henrique.
Of course, if you look hard enough you’ll also find the answers to the popular “Guess the Autograph” contest, too. Stay tuned Monday when we’ll do a random drawing of all correct entries (all submissions were due by 11:59 p.m. CST yesterday and we greatly appreciate everyone’s participation).
Until Monday, though, just sit back and enjoy the next 28 stunning images.

Amazing colors!
Great contest as always Tracy, thanks for sending all that great stuff to Chris Justice @ the Hobby Box for his 10k video giveaway!
Hi Tracy….That Messier from the “The ELITE Series” is smoking…thanks for the peek ! Do you have any Carl Hagelin RC/Auto’s for display…..and can you please hurry up and release some hockey…Upper Deck already released SP Game Used this week…theres no Hagelin RC/Autos in that product….Hopefully theres some in your Elite and Contenders, Thanks. – PS…Please keep an eye out for Chris Krieder(for Future Products)…just won the NCAA Championship and could play his 1st. game/playoff game for the NY Rangers soon, Thanks….Joe R
Good luck to all who entered!!
They all look amazing but the Contenders really stand out! Wow! They look amazing. The real black with the autograph and the standout color of the patch. Mind blowing. If Cousin Eddie was here from the Christmas Vaction movie he would say….Tracy, those cards look gooooo..oooooooddddddd
Wow… this is the best looking hockey card product since UD the Cup. Love the on-card auto’s and crisp, clean design. I am liking both products, but I think Elite is looking best. Hope there are some nice Buffalo Sabres auto’s.
Actual, while I am at it here.. can a company come up with a sweat Buffalo Sabres Alexander Mogilny/ Pat Lafontaine dual auto card? I have been waiting for some time now for a card company to come up with a dual auto featuring these two guys in Sabres gear. Maybe a Dynamic Duo or something from the past or even something from the Panini Authentic division.
i was worried i got the messier one wrong but i nailed them all.
Aw Dang. I missed that kid from the Blackhawks.
Now my weekend is ruined.
That Tim Thomas patch…. wow.
Wow, I love previews 😉
I got them all right. GL to all who got them right. Anyone know how many entries there were?
Looks like there’s some competition for the random drawing. Amazing product for sure! Good luck to everyone that’s in the draw – got my fingers and toes crossed (little difficult to walk and type, but making due:-))
Funny. Yes, good luck to everyone and thanks so much for participating. We’ll conduct the random draw tomorrow.
Wow, I love that Gabriel Landeskog Contenders Auto/Relic card! Looks sweet! Of course, no complaints on any of the cards. The Tim Thomas patch looks great too. Lucky pulls those will be! Thanks for the pics Tracy.
