Frequently asked
Who's 2016-17 Upper Deck Premier for?
The deep end. People buy this chasing top rookie patch autos and legend signatures, and the price reflects it.

Which rookies are the biggest chases?
The top-tier rookies are Auston Matthews, Patrik Laine, Mitch Marner, and William Nylander, all numbered to /199 on their Acetate Rookie Auto Patches.
