2021-22 Upper Deck Credentials Hockey Cards

Product Details

Back to the ice following a quick timeout, 2021-22 Upper Deck Credentials Hockey returns for a second NHL season.

Although the brand technically skipped a year in between sets, the product offers a double set, of sorts, thanks to the 2020-21 update cards.

Hobby boxes average one hit that can either be an autograph or unsigned acetate insert.

2021-22 Upper Deck Credentials Hockey Base / Parallels

Similar to the debut release, 2021-22 Upper Deck Credentials Hockey features a 150-card base set with 50 veterans and 100 Debut Ticket Access rookie cards.

Split into tiers, the Debut Ticket Access cards come in four different rarity subsets, with all cards numbered to 999 or less.

The much larger parallel rainbow offers a Hobby-only Purple (#/10) edition.
