What are these options?
- Hobby Box
- The full-size box sold through card shops rather than big-box stores. It has the most packs and the best odds, and most modern hobby boxes guarantee at least one autograph or memorabilia card. Pack and card counts vary by product line. Older listings sometimes call this a wax box.
- Blaster Box
- The small retail box sold at stores like Walmart and Target, usually the cheapest full box on the shelf. Autographs are not guaranteed, but many blasters carry exclusive parallels you cannot pull from a hobby box.
- Cases
- The factory-sealed carton a product ships in, holding a set number of boxes. A full case is the whole carton; an inner case is a smaller sealed block from inside it. Case buyers get untouched pack sequencing and a lower price per box. Some rare cards are seeded about once per case, which is what collectors mean by a case hit.

Frequently asked
Who's 2022-23 Upper Deck CHL 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's the main draw of this product?
Connor Bedard Retrospective cards are the headline chase. They look back on his WHL moments since 2020-21, and autograph versions are limited to just 10 copies each, making them tough pulls.
How many autographs should I expect per box?
Autographs aren't guaranteed. Base Autographs, Base Stars Autographs, and Base Star Rookies Autographs all fall at 1:48 packs. Some insert lines also have rare signed versions, but they're not a standard box hit.
What are the base set short prints?
Cards #301-400 are short prints, split evenly between Stars (#301-350) and Star Rookies (#351-400). They average one per pack and combine with the base set to total 400 cards.
What parallels should I know about?
All 400 base cards have three parallel tiers: Exclusives (/100), High Gloss (/10), and Printing Plates (1/1). Stars and Star Rookies also get Clear Cut acetate versions, one per box. These parallels combine to fall roughly one per box.
How does this compare to other Upper Deck hockey products?
CHL focuses on prospects and emerging talent from the Canadian Hockey League, making it a lighter, more manageable product than NHL releases. The 400-card base set is sizable, but the insert structure keeps things straightforward.
What's the rarest insert?
CHL Graduates at 1:200 packs is the toughest pull. It honors all-time greats from the CHL system, with Red parallels numbered to 99 and ultra-rare White Autographs limited to just 5 copies.
Are there any retro design elements?
Yes. Future Heroes uses the 1993 Upper Deck Baseball Future Heroes design as a throwback, highlighting budding CHL talent with multiple parallel tiers including a 1/1 Black version.
When did 2022-23 Upper Deck CHL come out?
It dropped August 23, 2023.
