2000 – A Quest Is Bruin'

The 2000s finally saw Upper Deck put together some interesting styling and cohesive-feeling releases. Some key rookie cards from Patrice Bergeron, Tuukka Rask, and Brad Marchand are the highlights of this decade.

From my collection : Top 10 modern Bruins cards

My favorite Willie O'Ree card A short list of my 10 (or so) favorite Bruins cards from the modern era.

2009-10 SP Authentic

2009-10 SP Authentic Complete – base cards, Essentials, and Future Watch autos.

2008-09 SP Authentic

2008-09 SP Authentic Complete – base cards, SP Notables, and the one Future Watch auto (Wheeler).

2008-09 O-Pee-Chee Retro

2008-09 O-Pee-Chee Retro Complete. This was not an easy set to complete, but man, what nostalgia with the 1979-80 design.

2007-08 SP Authentic

2007-08 SP Authentic Complete – as with many SP Authentic releases, I have the base cards and Future Watch autos, but am light on some of the scarcer inserts.

2006-07 SP Authentic

2006-07 SP Authentic Complete – base and Future Watch autos, but no patches, and no Sign of the Times.

2005-06 SP Authentic

2005-06 SP Authentic Complete – base cards and Future Watch. Sign of the Times featuring Bergeron are fairly scarce.

2004-05 SP Authentic

2004-05 SP Authentic Complete. One of the more boring SP Authentic releases, likely impacted by that year's NHL lockout.

2003-04 SP Authentic

2003-04 SP Authentic Complete. Including a Patrice Bergeron Future Watch auto, graded PSA 10.

2002-03 SP Authentic

2002-03 SP Authentic Complete for the base cards and Future Watch, but not for inserts or Sign of the Times.

2001-02 SP Authentic

2001-02 SP Authentic Complete at least the base cards; inserts are another story.

2000-01 SP Authentic

2000-01 SP Authentic Complete. Base cards and minor inserts, but not all of the Sign of the Times.
