To me, really, both are near mint cards. The Cheevers for that matter should be a 9 oc. I'd rather that than a 6.

Which is why I usually just buy slabbed hockey rather than self-submitting; better control over what I get.
Right on. That Mahovlich is a joke. What a beautiful card. And the Cheevers is definitely O/C.

About 18 months ago I submitted three OPC Tony Esposito RC's. Got a 9, 7 o/c, and a 6. All cards I had since I was a kid. The o/c was barely, and all three looked sharp.

Comparing your Mahovlich to the Cheevers, they missed the boat as to what one was o/c.

Nice cards anyway...
