2021-22 Upper Deck Series 1 Hockey Retail Box

Upper Deck's Flagship Hockey Set — Loaded with Young Guns

If you've been collecting hockey cards for any length of time, you know what Upper Deck Series 1 means. It's the one that kicks off the season, sets the tone, and delivers the Young Guns rookie cards that collectors chase all year long. The 2021-22 Upper Deck Series 1 Hockey Retail Box brings all of that energy in a 24-pack, 8-cards-per-pack format — that's 192 cards per box to dig through.

This is the class that introduced the hockey world to Trevor Zegras, Cole Caufield, Jamie Drysdale, Tanner Jeannot, and Spencer Knight as Young Guns. These are names that matter. Pull a Caufield or a Zegras Young Guns and you know exactly what you've got in your hands.

What's Inside

The base set runs 250 cards deep — 198 regulars, 49 Young Guns, and three checklists. You're averaging six Young Guns per box, so there's real rookie content in every single box you crack. The UD Canvas insert is back too, mixing star power with Canvas Young Guns in that distinctive painted-card style collectors love.
