Card of the Day

I just think this is a cool looking card.  

Mario Lemieux had 40 hat tricks in his illustrious career.  That puts him second all-time, 10 behind Wayne Gretzky but in 500 fewer games.  Super Mario once scored five goals in a game in five different ways -- shorthanded, full strength, powerplay, penalty shot, and empty net.

  1. I love this card. I used to have it, but I have no idea what happened. to it.

    Yeah, I think that Lemieux's 5 goals five different ways is one of the most INSANE sporting achievements across all sports. When you consider what events have to be set in motion to give him the opportunity to even get that, and then for him to deliver on it is just mind-boggling.
