2025-26 SPx Hockey Checklist Rundown
While the 2025-26 SPx Hockey checklist is more focused on premium base cards and inserts, such as acetate and hologram versions, limited autographs are also in the mix.
Teased signers include Bobby Orr, Connor Bedard and Zeev Buium.
Base & Parallel Details
The base set for 2025-26 SPx Hockey taps into the legacy of the '90s brand, with a selection of busy and shiny designs.
In total, there are 165 cards in the main lineup, including 100 veterans starting things off in the base numbering.
The 50-card base Rookies series (#101-150) averages four cards per box.
Additionally, every box should yield three Silver parallels and one Gold parallel. The all-new Resonance parallel (/150) expands the overall rainbow.

Acting as a limited high-series, the Rookie Holograms subset (#151-165; 1:86 packs) highlights the cream of the crop, offering just Blue (/25), Red (/10) and Gold (1/1) parallels. These short prints combine to fall twice per case.
Insert Details
From there, the 2025-26 SPx Hockey checklist contains an ample supply of inserts.
Debuts include 34.5 lbs (1:14 packs), a die-cut insert honoring past winners of the iconic Stanley Cup trophy, with a nod to its hefty weight.
PETG and "simulated hologram" cards combine to yield four cards per box, including All-Time Holoview (1:40 packs), Bound For Glory (1:160 packs), Excellence Redefined (1:20 packs), Holoview F/X (Rookies 1:7 packs; Vets 1:10 packs), SPx Game Film (1:14 packs) and SPx Debut Night Game Film (1:20 packs).
Finite Rookies and Finite Vets are both back in action, capped at 999 copies or fewer. Each box has two cards from these sets.
