Usual story...went for supplies, came back with more than I wanted. In this case, it was a pack of Famous Fabrics Second Edition.

I dig the complaint that there are no pictures on the card, but how else could you put these eight guys on ONE card?

Unreal.

Wayne Gretzky
Mario Lemieux
Steve Yzerman
Sidney Crosby
Alexander Ovechkin
Bobby Orr
Joe Sakic
Gordie Howe

Apparently true, but listening to the FAN590 (which is why I say "apparently") today and talking about trades that nearly were...we all know how close the Toronto Maple Leafs were to landing Wayne Gretzky (they'd STILL be selling out of #99 Leafs jerseys) but apparently in 1993, the Quebec Nordiques offered Jocelyn Thibeault and Joe Sakic to the Leafs for Felix Potvin. The Leafs balked thinking they had their goalie of the future in Potvin, leaving Quebec/Colorado "stuck" with Sakic. Why can't we ever get smart people to run our franchise?
 
That has to be one of the nicest cards around. Although, IMO, I wish they wouldn't have put Crosby or Ovechkin on it. I know it helps relate all those older players to the current, but they don't deserve to be with all those other greats just yet. Could have added like Beliveau, Lidstrom, Bobby Hull, Bourque, or someone like that.
 
That card is my favorite card so far in 2010. Congrats on a SICK pull!
