“ Favorite all time Canadien. I liked this set, but it was also the start of "the garbage years" as far as hockey cards were concerned. Way too much product & not enough substance. ” -uncaian

“ Wasn't he the first HOFer to come out of retirement to play the sport again? The only other 2 I can think of are Mario Lemieux and Michael Jordan. ” -vrooomed

“ Is french still the #1 language in Canada? ” -carthage44

“ Nice OPC card. Excellent design. ” -captkirk42

“ I like OPC but don't think I've ever owned a hockey card from the era that they were the Canadian counterpart of Topps. Just baseball. I should buy one online, I guess. ” -switzr1

“ This is a rare error card, "Guy" is misspelled "Gueeey" on the back of the card. :) ” -RoyalChief

“ Don't understand why he's on the Rangers on this card. His last game was with Quebec. ” -wax_house

“ Of all the crazy anecdotes surrounding Lafleur's career, this is my favourite: In 1979, Lafleur released an album called Lafleur. The album consisted of Guy Lafleur reciting hockey instructions, accompanied by disco music. (from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Lafleur) ” -dilemma19

Vrooomed, Ryne Sandberg is another HOFer who retired and came back to play again. Oh, how I wish he'd just kept playing. Same for Jordan. V3

What I meant was someone who played the game AFTER being enshrined in their HOF. Sandberg was only out of the game a year and came back. He retired a second time THEN was voted in.
