UpperDeck is famous for using older pictures and such. They do it to save money as they have to pay for every picture that they use. So if they have already payed for pictures of the team when they were in Atlanta, they don't want to pay extra and have pictures of that team now that its Winnipeg, and since the cards are designed basically almost a year in advance there is a lot of players showing old jerseys, especially guys that were traded. They do the same with their jersey cards, I have cards of Tanguay as a flame the the jersey piece in the card is from an old Avalanche jersey. They paid for the game worn jersey, they gotta use it all up...
Below is probably my card thats worth the most due to its rarity...only 10 made...
