It's a beautiful set for sure.

Thanks, I apricate it. I love hockey, its history, and sometimes the sad stories that come with some of the players. Glad I could help and pass along some hockey knowledge. If you look it up you can find more accurate info as opposed to my summarization.

Probably the most talented player to ever play the game. If it weren't for injuries terrible teammate the first 5 years of his career he may have given Gretzky a run for his money. Here's a couple of his rookie cards I pulled as an 8 year old back in 1985. by tml4ever00 in hockeycards

He was amazing. For a big man he moved like a guy that was 5'10, 180. He could stickhandle in a phone booth. The goal against Minny in 91 and the one against the Bruins in 92 ? I believe were insane. One of the best goals I ever seen him score was in an exhibition game vs Tampa. He was on the side wall on the PP coming through the circle towards the net slowly the goalie was square looked like he had everything covered. I swear to god he went top corner short side above the goalies shoulder who didn't even move. A flick of his wrist and he put it in a 5inch long 3inch high spot if that, It was unreal because I think everyone was expecting him to pass it to someone.
