The new patch windows in 24-25 Artifacts are tiny now. Overlayed them on top of last year's patch window and that's a noticeable difference.

Sweet mega patch from 2022-23 UD Premier!

Are there more #hockeycards people here yet 👀

2023-24 SP Authentic is probably the biggest "Bedard Tax" product to ever come out. It's very risky to the point where you need to hit a Bedard auto or a rare Fantilli/Cooley/Carlsson to break even or pull ahead

It is a very bold decision to send out a $250-$300 card as the top card in a two piece container that doesn’t really fit it

I think if Upper Deck removed the Gaming inserts from 2024-25 Series 1, it’d be a better product #cardsky #hockeycards

Overall 2024-25 Series 1 is fun but they could probably cut out all of the Gaming inserts and the product would be no worse for wear
Happy 2024-25 UD Series 1 release day!

The Young Guns Renewed are really well done. #hockeycards #cardsky

Did a 2024-25 Upper Deck Young Guns checklist review! I think it's going to be a bit of a better crop than people expect it to be.

Happy 23-24 SkyBox release day!

Set seems fun for the most part.

These inserts are, uh, very different #hockeycards #cardsky

2022-23 Upper Deck The Cup is projected to come out next Wednesday (September 18th)!

It's the highest-end hockey card set, and the main chase cards are the Rookie Patch Autos (specifically: the ones limited to just 99 copies each)

Here's a breakdown of the rookies in it! #cardsky

The first look for 2024-25 UD Credentials is live! #Cardsky

Looks like it is back to a guaranteed auto, which is nice.

(1/2)

The latest UD releases have been “cool, but overpriced” and i really hope that changes #hockeycards

Trevor Zegras is still a sticker auto in The Cup, but everyone else is on card

There's a Bedard SP insert in Series 1!

The past few times UD did an SP-1 in Series 1, the odds were 1:12,960 packs (540 boxes/45 cases).

There has also been a variation (SP-1V) at 1:60,000 packs

Wouldn't be entirely shocked to to see the Bedard SSP fall around the same rate, and a variant too

The 2023-24 Upper Deck Series 1 Checklist is out and the Young Guns are solid.

A trio of really good goalies (Levi, Wolf, Askarov) headline the list alongside Matthew Knies, Marco Kasper, and Luke Hughes.

What are your thoughts?

2023-24 UD Series 1 got bumped up to October 18th! Excited to see the Young Guns crop in that.

My hockey card hot take is that Premier RPAs are nicer than The Cup RPAs, and this year’s look kinda sick

Also look at the on card autos 👀

Ultimate having Caufield, Zegras, and Seider as sticker autos is definitely a frustrating time.

It’s going to be interesting to see what becomes the norm. Sticker autos are better than redemptions that don’t get filled, but in a premium product they look ugly

It’s going to be interesting to see how the Fanatics anti-trust lawsuit plays out. Hopefully with a good resolution for collectors, and not a monopoly.

Seeing 2021-22 Credentials at the price it is at without the guarantee of an autograph is kind of wild
