It's not just Upper Deck, Topps does the same thing with their baseball cards. The low end products uses the plain part of the jersey whereas the nicer stuff are saved for the high end products. I guess it's an incentive for the consumer to spend the bigger $$$ on the elite products.

Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I wouldn't mind that card. An all-white patch probably came from a number or crest piece, which is still pretty cool. I do agree with those who are saying the crazy pieces should be held for the more high-end products, but UD needs to use as much as the jersey's they acquire, which includes those white pieces of the jersey. And on the topic of swatches, when every single team has at least one jersey that is mainly white in colour, you're going to received a lot of white swatches out there.
Now, if UD were to decrease the number of white swatches, and save the coloured ones, that would make jersey cards harder to hit (better for the hobby IMO), and would probably solve this problem. I'm all in for that, but as of today, it's not the way UD runs things and with the amount of parallels and 1/1's today, these things happen.Jhonas Enroth Card Collector & Host of the Hidden Content
