2017-18 O-Pee-Chee Hockey is All About That Base

August 27, 2017 By Rich Mueller

The wax wrappers and rough cut cards disappeared long ago but an old school hobby brand lives on with the upcoming arrival of 2017-18 O-Pee-Chee hockey.  The low-cost product from Upper Deck is something along the lines of a Topps baseball flagship set, albeit one without any autographs. 

Each box will have 32 packs with eight cards per pack.  Online pricing is currently in the $65-$75 range.

OPC hockey is all about the base cards with Auston Matthews kicking it off as card #1, but there are some things to chase as well.  This year’s base set is 600 cards, including a 100-card series of high numbers that will fall one in every two packs.  

Cards numbered 501-550 will feature Marquee Rookie cards, a group that will include some players who made their debuts too late last season such as Clayton Keller, Alex Nylander, Tyson Jost, Nikita Scherbak, Alex Tuch, Josh Ho-Sang, Ivan Barbashev, and Evgeny Svechnikov.  The rest of the series includes Season Highlights, League Leaders and Team Checklists.  The base set also has Rainbow Foil (Inserted 1:4) and Black Rainbow Foil (#’d to 100) parallels. Retro variations will fall one per pack, highlighting some past O-Pee-Chee designs.

New to the product is a 77-card insert set of Minis. Each box will include eight. There are SPs and variations including Black and Black Foil parallels.

O-Pee-Chee Patches are back with 100 on the checklist including some ultra-rare mascot variations and players from the past and present.

Look for O-Pee-Chee Playing Cards, which return this year and fall at a rate of five per box.  The Aces will be harder to get than others, especially the scarce Foil versions.
