“ We just had one of these cards come up recently...what are the odds that an obscure set like this would get the nod twice in such a short time? I'm sure the stats could be calculated but I'm not going to do it! ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Darn it. I'm a bit too late to send my wrappers and a dime to get an NHLPA decal. Nice vintage hockey oddball! ” -olerud363
“ Classic hockey, nice! Interesting design, putting stats on the front. ” -IfbBirdsCards
“ Whoa. Great guy, great card ” -Lennoxmatt

“ They have no stats or team logos, but I still like these. Maybe due to the "uniformity" of the NHL Players uniforms and the odd shape makes it for a great "odd-ball" card. By using the posed photos, it gave a face to hockey players who weren't always seen too well (especially the goalies). Quinn went on to be a very successful and well-respected coach. ” -vrooomed
“ I wonder how many people started collecting because the bought a pack of cookies and received a few cards. ” -kirkscards

“ The legendary Pat Quinn, on an awesome vintage card. The NHLPA jersey is interesting. I'm curious about the backstory on this set. ” -kents_stuff
“ Dude! He looks like the brother from American Pickers! ” -Joshua825
“ Never mind him being so young here. I'm not used to seeing Pat Quinn without a piece of gum in his mouth. ” -DanD
“ The Mighty Quinn! Come on without, come on within... ” -Sportzcommish
“ Even with the odd shape, there is something really cool about it. I never knew Pat Quinn to be a player, I always knew him from modern day, so coaching, front office, etc. He wasn't much of a scorer, eh? Sorry, couldn't resist. ” -muskie027
“ God rest his soul, Pat Quinn gave people in Toronto reason to believe for a few years... ” -rmitchell6700
