Carl Voss!
1. I won a rookie of the year award. Calder 1933 (First in the NHL)

2. I am a hall of fame member. (Hockey Hall of Fame as a Builder 1974)

3. I am one of only two players to have their names on both the Stanley Cup and the trophy of this specific other professional sport (Stanley Cup in 1938, Grey Cup (CFL) in 1924

4. I scored a Stanley Cup winning goal. (Cup finals in 1938 with Chicago vs. Toronto)

5. After retiring from playing, I spent a decade employed by a well-known equipment company (CCM)

Shawn, as a prize, you should give out packs of 91/92 Pro Set. At least the 90/91 product had some ridiculous errors and that Stanley Cup "chase card." The 91/92 Pro Set is probably the worst product ever made.

We're on a wavelength today my friend as I was actually looking to do a Pro Set article for this week or next! That set was beautifully horrible!

90/91 was at least fun. So any EURs.
92/93 was actually decent, and had some nice insert sets.
91/92 was the pits. Bland, ugly design, lots of black and brown. Not nearly as many EURs, and no inserts. Probably the least desirable set ever.
