National Hockey Card Day is a unique Upper Deck tradition where collectors and hockey fans around the world open FREE NHL® trading cards from participating retailers. This year National Hockey Card Day will be taking place on Saturday, February 26, 2022.
National Hockey Card Day is a great opportunity for new and avid collectors to enjoy the hobby of collecting together. As more collectors join the scene, the number of participating stores also continues to grow! To find a participating shop near you, visit UpperDeck.com/NHCD.
The United States and Canada both have exclusive NHCD (National Hockey Card Day) trading card sets that will be available at participating retailers. International stores will carry the same set as the United States. Each set is made up of sixteen cards consisting of 5 rookies, 5 veterans, and 5 legends. Be on the lookout for the 16th card of this set, Rookie Moments, available as a gift with a $10 purchase of an Upper Deck product at participating shops while supplies last.
