2023-24 O-Pee-Chee Hockey Forum

Is there any reason why Pavel Zacha is on the Devils in this set? The base Upper Deck set has him with the Bruins. Could they just not get a photo of him from the entire previous season, decide forget it, and just use an old one and list him with the Devils?

Yikes! I thought it was bad that they still have Patrick Kane on the Hawks in this set. This is worse. At least Kane was a Hawk 1/2 the season. For such a popular set, due to Bedard mania, they sure were lazy with this one 

Seems like a stupid mistake. I agree with Craig, the Kane (and also the Quick one) card is bad enough. But this is just dumb.

Josh Manson is still shown as a Duck, 1 plus years (and 1 Stanley Cup win) since he moved to the Avalanche.

Brett Kulak is with the Habs I believe some 2 years since he played with them

What's even crazier to me is that in the previous year's O-Pee-Chee set, while still in a Devils uni, they at least list his team as the Bruins. And in last year's Upper Deck set he's all Bruins in Series 2. Just mind boggling.

I’ve seen the same with Weegar (#315), Lomberg (#226, back image shows Flames), Valimaki (#465). They started to get it right with last year’s release, then regressed this year. 

I’m wondering if all these should be listed as errors, especially the Lomberg, or do we just chalk it up to “it is what it is”?

I feel like Upper Deck is getting lazier with their sets. See my rant about the 2023-24 MVP set, where they have players with the teams they started out with at the beginning of the 2022-23 season instead of the one they were on at the end of the season. It's so annoying.

I get it, but then again MVP is lately always the first release of the hockey calendar. O-Pee-Chee comes out later in the season (even after Series 1), so there should be less or none of these type errors.
