I always liked his hockey cards more than most for some reason. The old Kings one especially.

The man played a LOT of hockey.

haha had his old Kings card too- its in a binder still I think. (disclosure I was a bit too young to actually be collecting cards when he was with the Kings, but my grandmother- a school librarian (very old school) confiscated kids cards who were trading them during library hours and sent them to me! LOL) anyways yeah cool cards because he looked so old even then and on the back you could see he had played forever and ever

I remember when Miss Slomka confiscated all my cards in Grade 4.

I’ve never gotten over that.

One of the greats. Had the pleasure to see him play (helmetless of course) for the Cowboys. RIP HH.

I remember him playing for the Cowboys. Also was a player-coach for the San Diego Mariners the season before.

One of the greats.

When Harry Howell won his only Norris Trophy he said in his acceptance speech that he was going to treasure this trophy stating I expect Bobby Orr is going to own this for many years to come. He was right as Bobby Orr won 8 straight Norris trophies after his.
