One Card Post - Controversy

What:  2011-12 Parkhurst Champions #105 - Brett Hull Wire Photo
Where:  COMC
How Much?:  $.48

Why?:  With the NHL playoffs just around the corner (final week of the season this week!), it seemed like the perfect time to showcase this card, which features perhaps the most controversial playoff goal in league history.  Just a beautiful card, a nice overhead shot of two HOFers.  I doubt there are many Sabres fans with a copy of this one in their collection!  Let's hope we can get through the playoffs and award The Cup without any of this nonsense this year...

    That is one fantastic card. Actually, all those Parkhurst Wire Photos are awesome.

    No one remembers Nieuwendyk was a beast in that series. Everyone remembers Hull's no goal goal.

    Yup! 23 points in 23 playoff games for Joe that year. Even spent 19 minutes in the sin bin!
