The set includes 198 veteran cards, 49 Young Guns® cards and three checklist cards. And as noted above, we’ve added a stunning base set parallel - Outburst Silver!
• Fans and collectors alike will be blown away by the UD Portraits cards! The latest version of this classic insert portrays veteran stars and rookies like you’ve never seen them before! No two portraits are the same. Collect one (1) per Tin, on average.
• New Insert Sets! The latest edition of Series 1 sports an impressive lineup of new insert sets sure to please everyone, from the casual fan to the avid collector:
o 200’ x 85’: Each card in this set features a player (star veteran or top rookie) on a hockey rink backdrop - with both the player and the rink treated with Lite FX. Collect both one (1) regular version and one (1) Tin-exclusive Green parallel per box, on average!

o Star Zone: This set is comprised of many of the veteran stars in the game today. Collect one (1) per Tin, on average.

o Teacher’s Pet: Each card in this fun set sports a player “report card” and highlights the skill for which each player in the checklist is best known. Look for one (1) per Tin, on average. In addition to the regular set, there is also a rare Gold parallel set.
• UD Canvas®, a longtime favorite among collectors, returns featuring a collection of the top stars in the game today along with the best of the Young Guns®. Series 1 contains the first 120 cards of this intra-series set.
