Just read a post about Eric Lindros cards & after 25 years, I finally learned the truth about his "SP" card #88. According to Puck Junk's blog, the card front's "action" image is actually Rob Brind'Amour's body - with Eric's head & "88"s pasted on. Is there a User List or tag for "Frankenstein" cards?

WOW great trivia find SaintOrm, had to go look as soon as I read your post. It does look a touch odd now that you look at it a bit more.

Good catch! I submitted a tag request for “Frankenstein,” if approved, it’ll show up in the next site update. ------------------------------- #2 Bowie Baysox, #12 Trey Mancini, & #3 Austin Wynns collector on the site.

In the comments section for this set, the Lindros problem is partially explained but makes no mention of Brind'Amour.

The Rogie Vachon card Puck Junk shows is really terrible and great at the same time.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

I have done that in custom cards when doing cards for when a player changes teams but I never realized a card company would do it in a major release.
