Frequently asked

Who's 2016-17 Upper Deck Trilogy 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 are the key rookie cards in 2016-17 Trilogy?
Auston Matthews, Patrik Laine, and Mitch Marner are the marquee names. Matthews' autograph is numbered to just /99, while Laine and Marner are /175. All three have multiple autograph tiers and parallels, making them the primary chase for most collectors.
How many autographs should I expect per box?
Two autographs on average per box. This was a new format for Trilogy that year, a step up from previous releases and a major draw for the product.
What's the deal with Signature Pucks?
Signature Pucks are one of Trilogy's signature inserts, seeded at 1:16 packs (roughly one per two boxes). They feature on-card signatures on puck-shaped cards and come with hand-numbered parallels like Team Logo (/17) and NHL Logo (/3). Hall of Fame versions are much rarer at 1:432 packs.
What's the base set like?
The base set is just 50 cards of established stars like Connor McDavid, Sidney Crosby, and Alexander Ovechkin. Each has Blue Rainbow Foil (/999), Green Rainbow Foil Jersey Relics (numbered to career stats), and Black Rainbow Premium Materials (numbered to single-season totals).
Are there memorabilia cards besides autographs?
Yes. Tryptichs return with multiple relic pieces (jersey, patch, glove, etc.) and signed versions. Triple Relics are new, featuring three memorabilia swatches themed around past, present, and future. These add variety to the hit pool beyond pure autographs.
What makes Ice Scripts special?
Ice Scripts are on-card autographs printed on clear plexiglass stock, giving them a distinct look. They've been a Trilogy staple for years and remain a popular chase card for collectors who want something visually different from standard autos.
How do the rookie parallels work?
Rookie Premieres come in three levels. Common Rookies are /999, Uncommon Autograph Rookies are /375, and Rare Inscribed Autograph Rookies are /49. Each tier has Blue and Black parallels with tighter numbering. There are also Green Rookie Jerseys (/699) with Patch (/35) and Tag (/5) versions.
