About this card
Sidney Crosby’s 2024–25 Upper Deck Hockey card is number PL-7 in that release, in the Playlist edition. Upper Deck has made NHL cards since 1990-91, and its Series 1 and Series 2 sets are the league’s flagship release. In modern sets, rookies appear as Young Guns, a short-printed subset with its own design, and Young Guns are among the most collected modern hockey cards.
Sidney Crosby’s rookie-labeled entry in this catalog is the 2005 Upper Deck Hockey — Young Guns #201, so this later issue carries no rookie label.
How to identify it
Young Guns sit inside the main numbering, so a number alone does not tell you whether a card is a Young Gun; look for the Young Guns banner. Parallels such as Exclusives and High Gloss share the number but are serial-numbered or differently finished.
Playlist is part of this card’s name: it marks an insert or parallel inside Upper Deck Hockey, and the number on its own can point to a different card.

Raw / ungraded
- Match the issue
- Match the full year or season, release, number and named edition to this reference. Ask for readable images of the actual item’s front and back.
- Record visible condition
- Inspect corners, edges, centering and surface in suitable photographs or in person. Record damage or unanswered questions without assigning a predicted professional grade.
- Keep authentication separate
- Ungraded does not establish authenticity or mean “never authenticated.” A protective case alone does not establish a professional condition grade.
Professionally graded
- Read the complete label
- Record the grading company, exact issue, card grade and any qualifiers or designation. Keep an autograph grade separate from the card’s condition grade. An authentication-only designation may have no numeric condition grade.
- Compare the certification record
- Use the company’s official lookup and compare its issue details and available images with the actual item, label and holder. A matching certification number alone does not establish that an offered item is genuine.
- Compare within the stated scale
- Retain the company’s exact grade name and number. Different companies and grade designations are not automatically equivalent; a numeric label does not establish a current price.
A source-linked reference or historical scan does not authenticate the card you are considering. CardRoster supplies no assigned grade, certification or price for it.
