2021-22 O-Pee-Chee Hockey Hobby Pack

Product Details

The OPC collecting season normally involves a large base set along with several inserts and a new round of manufactured patches, and 2021-22 O-Pee-Chee Hockey keeps that legacy going.

Collectors can expect an average of two numbered base parallels, four OPC Premier Tallboys, four OPC playing cards, and one rare chase card per Hobby box.

2021-22 O-Pee-Chee Hockey Base / Parallels

The massive base set gives the 2021-22 O-Pee-Chee Hockey checklist a boost via the 600-card lineup.

The final 100 cards form the high-series subset, which includes Marquee Rookies (35 cards; #501-535), Rookie Season Reviews (#536-550), Team Checklists (31 cards; #551-581), League Leaders (9 cards; #582-590), and Season Highlights (10 cards; #591-600). These base short prints combine to fall in every other pack.

Like last year, there are a variety of base Image Variations.

Exclusive to Hobby, look for new Neon Green Border (#/50) editions and Printing Plates (1/1) among the base parallels.

For the Base OPC Retro versions, falling in every pack, there are Hobby-only Black Border (#/100) and Printing Plates (1/1) to chase.

2021-22 O-Pee-Chee Hockey Inserts

Very familiar to OPC fans, 2021-22 O-Pee-Chee Hockey features a few returning inserts.

The OPC Playing Cards insert is only available in Hobby boxes. While they average at least four per box overall, the tiered rarity makes the Aces and Jokers/Mascots cards much tougher to uncover.

There are also the OPC Premier Tallboys minis, which stand 2" x 3.5". Split into tiers, as well, including Rookies SP and Rookie Updates SSP, the insert offers the Patterned Rainbow Foilboard parallel. These new editions are only in the Hobby format.

Unannounced content includes OPC Premier Full-Size and OPC Platinum Preview along with 3D Marquee Rookies inserts and redemptions.

2021-22 O-Pee-Chee Hockey Manufactured Patches

The famed OPC Patches maintain the manufactured chase with a variety of Trophy Winners cards as well as SSP Hall of Fame Logo and OPC Logo Update cards.

These, too, are exclusive to 2021-22 O-Pee-Chee Hockey Hobby packs.

2021-22 O-Pee-Chee Hockey Upper Deck Bounty Program

If you really want to take on a challenge, 2021-22 O-Pee-Chee Hockey comes with a special UD Bounty Program promo. The Top Rookie Puzzle Bounty set promises prizes to those who can collect all nine cards in the puzzle.

The first 25 to redeem the complete set earn a card "featuring a top rookie selected in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft," as well as the Black Border (#/65) version and an autograph card (#/25).
