2020-21 Hockey Cards Overview
Upper Deck continues to hold the exclusive for NHL and NHLPA hockey cards. Topps does have a deal, but it’s limited to stickers and digital cards through its SKATE app. And while not licensed by the league, Leaf continues with its hits-heavy lineup of products that cover multiple generations.
With the pandemic delaying the start of the 2020-21 NHL season, it’s still not entirely clear how things will play out as it comes to cards. Upper Deck is still moving forward with its product line. They’ve also worked with the NHLPA to ensure that there are rookies in products, making an exception for some players and allowing them to appear before their first regular season game. What hasn’t been announced yet is what will happen with 2020 draft picks like the highly touted Alexis Lafreniere, who went first overall to the New York Rangers.

So does this mean that the players that were drafted this week (Lafreniere) will be in a series two production later in the year?
@Nicholas – Nothing has been announced as far as this year’s draft class goes.
So if and when they do produce the draft class players cards there’s a good chance they may be a little rare?
@Nicholas – Probably not. The only thing that may change is the timeframe that they come out.
Any idea when the checklist comes out
do you get hockey and NBA price list or do you have to order for each if you put a name and no. dose the card come up
It depends on what kind of subscription you have. There are sport-specific price guide subscriptions and there is Total Access that has all of them. Price guide info is found here: https://www.beckett.com/online-price-guide
Is the Tim Horton card any good to get
@Christian – If you like the cards, sure. If you’re not a fan, probably now.
will there be a Parkhurst Trading card set for 2020-21?
@Adam – At this point it hasn’t been announced but retail sets usually aren’t in advance.
When does 20-21 the cup come out
@Joe – Not sure. It’s not normally announced until very shortly before it comes out.
Any sign of Chronology Volume 3 for this year?
Sets are added as they’re announced.
