Upper Deck, a renowned name in the world of sports collectibles, has recently revealed a groundbreaking collaboration with hockey prodigy Michael Misa. The young talent, destined to be a top pick in the 2025 NHL Draft, has made waves in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) after being granted “Exceptional Status” at just 15 years old, a rare distinction shared by only a handful of players in the league’s history.
With accolades like the OHL Rookie of the Year award and the Emms Family Award already under his belt, Misa’s star continues to rise, attracting attention from fans and industry insiders alike. Upper Deck’s President, Jason Masherah, shared his excitement about the partnership, emphasizing the company’s commitment to creating a one-of-a-kind collection that will showcase Misa’s journey through exclusive memorabilia and trading cards.
Fans will have the opportunity to own a piece of Misa’s legacy through a range of memorabilia items, including autographed game-used pucks from his time with the Saginaw Spirit, prints of his iconic #77 jersey, and signed jerseys capturing key moments from his early career. In addition, Upper Deck has introduced a set of three Game Dated Moments trading cards on UpperDeckEpack.com, immortalizing milestones like Misa’s selection as the top pick in the 2022 OHL Priority Draft, his debut goal, and his Rookie of the Year triumph.
For the first 25 collectors to complete the card set, a special reward awaits in the form of an autographed version of Misa’s Rookie of the Year award card, available for purchase until February 22. This exclusive offer adds an extra layer of excitement for fans eager to commemorate Misa’s remarkable achievements on and off the ice.
Thrilled about the opportunity to join the ranks of Upper Deck’s esteemed athletes, Misa expressed his gratitude for the chance to fulfill lifelong dreams and connect with supporters through this partnership. By teaming up with a rising star like Misa, Upper Deck continues its tradition of bridging the gap between fans and their sports idols, offering innovative and engaging collectibles that celebrate the spirit of competition and camaraderie in the world of hockey.
