For my money, your example is the RC, mainstream issue (that stuff wasn't exactly hard to get, I had a lot and live in TN) from UD, pretty much an addendum to their North American issue. Maybe not the most persuasive of arguments, but I call that the RC. Really nice card regardless.

I know, eh!

I was briefly looking through some cards thinking of some cards I'd like to own and that is when I found this Kayria card.
It was listed as his RC but when I did some further digging, I found another piece that said his 92-93 was his "True" RC?

Like I mentioned in my 1st post, the info is scattered with some reading mine and others reading 92-93. I don't think, for whatever reason(s), it was ever entirely solved/proved?

" Rookie Card: Kariya’s rookie card is in the 1992-93 Upper Deck Hockey set, as a part of its World Junior Championships subset, a good two years before his NHL debut. Like most hockey cards made in the early 1990s, it is very easy to find. A more challenging – and earlier – Kariya card to track down is from the 1991-92 Upper Deck World Junior Championship set, which was sold in Czechoslovakia in 1992"
