Debut Game Jersey Details
Of course, a big chase has been added to 2025-26 Upper Deck Extended Series Hockey thanks to the all-new Debut Game Jersey program.
The Debut Game Jersey (1:1,008 packs) relic series is an homage to UD's iconic Game Jersey cards of the '90s. Taking this a step further, every card features images and jersey swatches from the player's first NHL game, noting the exact date and opponent.
Rare versions include Game Jersey Auto, which is jersey numbered, and Game Jersey Auto Black (1/1).
The one-of-one black version stands out even more with a gold-ink signature and a larger swatch.
Per UD, "The card will feature a swatch from the most authentic and unique tag on the player’s debut jersey. This may include a provenance tag issued by the team or a third-party authenticator or a personalized inscription from the team’s equipment manager on the tag or fight strap."
For those curious about the players, Upper Deck revealed the initial lineup.
- Beckett Sennecke (Anaheim Ducks)
- Brady Martin (Nashville Predators)
- Daniil But (Utah Mammoth)
- Danila Yurov (Minnesota Wild)
- Easton Cowan (Toronto Maple Leafs)
- Isaac Howard (Edmonton Oilers)
- Matthew Schaefer (New York Islanders)
- Michael Misa (San Jose Sharks)
- Sam Dickinson (San Jose Sharks)
The premium relics in the Game Jersey Auto Black series could include the following patches or fight straps.
