2021-22 Upper Deck Tim Hortons Hockey Forum

The rumour has that Tim Horton's 5-year contract with Upper Deck was done and that McDonald's was to have a hockey card set later this year. It seems that it was incorrect, because earlier this afternoon I just heard a radio commercial that Tim Horton's is having another card set this year and the packs are up for sale as early as now, not after Christmas as rumoured. I just hope that they will refresh their card design and their product quality control will be better than the mess from last season.

Was supposed to release today by the article too.

2021-22 Upper Deck Tim Hortons Hockey Checklist, Packs, Set Info, Date (cardboardconnection.com)

I just bought my first pack of cards of cards and noticed something interesting.  Even though it is a 2021-22 set, and therefore the past season is the 2020-21 one, the most recent season listed on the back of the cards is the 2019-20 season.

That would explain the earlier than expected release date.
