Every fall a new crop of talented rookies take to the ice in the NHL® and each year fans flock to the Fall Sport Card & Memorabilia Expo to get their first Young Guns rookie cards! Such is the case this year where talented young rookies like Brock Boeser (Vancouver Canucks), Nolan Patrick (Philadelphia Flyers), Nico Hischier (New Jersey Devils), Clayton Keller (Arizona Coyotes), Josh Ho-Sang (New York Islanders) Charlie McAvoy (Boston Bruins), and more will likely have their first licensed rookie cards hitting the market around this show. Many of their Young Guns rookie cards can be found in 2017-18 NHL® Upper Deck Series One which releases on November 9, the day before the show starts.

The International Centre in Missisauga, Ontario will be home to the Fall Sport Card & Memorabilia Expo from November 10-12. Upper Deck is going all out to make it a show to remember!
