Thursday, April 4, 2019

Year: 1997

Set: Bowman CHL (Rate)

Card: #138 Nikos Tselios


“ I know I still have a LOT to learn about hockey (more than I know by a wide margin, I'm sure) but I'm not familiar with this person OR set before seeing this come up as Card of the Day. a quick look at the checklist shows this card comes from a subset. The standard base cards have a much nicer front design. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ I was really hoping for some classic mullet hockey hair on the pic on the back... ” -rmpaq5

“ Unusual design. I like it. ” -switzr1

“ First round pick who never made it, and cousin to Chris Chelios. He only has 14 cards listed in the database to show for his 2 career NHL games played. Nowadays of course two career appearances could easily leave a player with hundreds of cards. ” -bevans

“ How many different variations of blue can you use on one card? I am counting 8 but could be wrong. Besides the blue overload it is a pretty good card. I like the masked/unmasked pictures. My mother always hated my card collecting growing up but I think this might be her favorite card, all of her dishes and most of her home is decorated in blue and white, with some yellow. This card would fit in perfectly. ” -davidhandberry

“ A late 90s cheap looking card. Why in every sport did we try to touch on every skil set in adobe photo shop to create a card. blech. ” -parsley24

“ Strange design looks like the card has two backs. ” -captkirk42

“ Don't like the blue background. Back isn't bad, but I hate when the first letters in names are in lower case lettering. I just really dislike that. ” -muskie027

Anytime you get a hockey card as the card of the day is a good day. Insert or non base card is a good thing also. Do not believe I have this insert in my Ultimate Hockey Card PC.

Trying to acquire one card for every for every set, insert, parralle, minor, euro, team issue, oddball etc sets produced for Hockey. Been an interesting project.

It was a base set! I have a few of these I think I got mostly from those re-packs at Target.

I had no idea he was related to Chelios. Just goes to show lightning doesn’t always strike twice.
