2017-18 Upper Deck Series 2 Hockey Set For Valentine’s Day Release

February 5, 2018 By Bob D'Angelo

Hockey lovers may be getting cardboard instead of candy next week. The second half of the NHL’s annual flagship trading card product arrives with 2017-18 Upper Deck Series 2 hockey set to release on Valentine’s Day. 

Tops on the carryover from Series 1 are the ever popular Young Guns. Upper Deck is promising six per hobby box, and Series 2 will contain 50 of these rookies to supplement the 200-card base set. Notable Young Guns will include Nolan Patrick, drafted second overall by the Philadelphia Flyers; and Clayton Keller, the seventh overall pick who was drafted by the Arizona Coyotes.

Like Series 1, hobby boxes in Series 2 will carry 24 packs, with eight cards per pack. A case will consist of 12 boxes.

Hobby boxes (around $85) and blasters are available here.

In addition to the six Young Guns, a hobby box should yield, on average, four UD Canvas inserts, four UD Portrait inserts and six OPC Update inserts.

Fluorescence also will highlight rookies, with 50 top first-year players displayed on cards with spectrum light FX.  Some will be numbered as low as 5. For fans who enjoy die-cuts, the Rookie Breakouts insert set will be printed on acetate stock and will be numbered to 100.

The second series installment of the Canvas cards, includes Retired Stars and Program of Excellence variations.

Base set parallel hits include Exclusive (# to 100) and High Gloss parallels (# to 10) along with Clear Cut, which will be exclusive to hobby boxes and the annual “Day with the Cup.” 

You can see 2017-18 Upper Deck Series 2 hockey boxes and cases for sale here.
