72-73 OPC Team Canada Series 2 Insert - Pat Stapleton

Wow Wow Whitey! Here is card number 2 of my series of 72-73 Team Canada Inserts.

As you can see, maybe one of the least attractive floating heads you may come across in your lives....More tape residue like the Dryden.

As you can see on the back Stapleton played in almost all the games and even though he didn't supply much in the way of offense, he was a steady man on the back end. In his NHL career Stapleton was a more offensive threat including a season where he finished 5th overall in assists with 50!

  1. Hey now, I'm sure my floating head would be much worse! I grew up with Whitey's Blackhawk teams.

  2. Not a chance Hakenbush! I refuse to believe that.....Were you a fan of Whitey with the 'Hawks?

  3. I have a fondness for all the guys back then from Mikita and the Hulls, to Maki, Dejordy, Pit Martin and Jim Pappin etc. They were the hockey team of my formative years. I used to listen to the games on the radio with my Dad with the legendary Lloyd Petit ("a shot and a GOAL!)at the mic.
