Frequently asked

Who's 2021-22 Upper Deck Ice for?
For collectors who want hits without Cup money. Figure on an auto or relic every box or two, with rookies you'll actually recognize.
What makes 2021-22 Ice special compared to other Upper Deck hockey products?
Ice is built around acetate rookie cards, particularly the Ice Premieres subset which are serially numbered as low as 99. Every box is also guaranteed a hit (autograph, memorabilia, or Frozen in Ice rip card), plus a bonus pack of 2020-21 Ice cards that were originally planned for a cancelled set.
What are the key rookie cards to chase?
The Ice Premieres acetate rookies are the main draw, with the rarest versions numbered to just 99 copies. Look for parallels like Gold (/25) and Black (1/1) versions. Sub Zero Rookies and Exquisite Rookie Signatures are also premium rookie chases.
How many autographs should I expect per box?
You're guaranteed one hit per box, which can be an autograph, memorabilia card, or Frozen in Ice rip card. The actual autograph rate varies depending on which insert or parallel you pull.
What's included in the bonus 2020-21 Ice pack?
Every box includes a five-card bonus pack with, on average, three 2020-21 base cards, one 2020-21 parallel, and one 2020-21 Ice Premieres rookie acetate card. This lets you chase cards from the cancelled 2020-21 set.
What are the rarest parallels in the base set?
Royal Blue (/99), Gold Patch (/15 for veterans, /25 for rookies), and Black (1/1) are all hobby exclusive. Ice Blue parallels are 1:180 for veterans and 1:360 for rookies. Some base cards also have autograph versions like White Snowflake Auto and Red Auto (/5).
Are there any new insert sets in 2021-22 Ice?
Yes, three new inserts debuted: Frozen in Ice (rip cards revealing Ice Premieres Minis), Ice Crystals (die-cut cards), and Shrines (three subsets with acetate and foilboard layers). These join returning favorites like Sub Zero.
What's the base set size and structure?
The complete base set is 250 cards: 100 veterans, 50 regular rookies, and 100 Ice Premieres acetate rookies. You'll pull roughly one rookie per pack and at least two Ice Premieres per box on average.
