Simon Gagné Autograph Card

Upper Deck makes all hockey cards nowadays, even those by formerly recognizable brands, such as O-Pee-Chee. This one is part of the O-Pee-Chee Premier collection for 2008-09 (card #PP-SG), and is numbered 62/100.

Also of note is that this card was produced while Simon Gagné was still rebounding from a serious concussion. We all hope he regains his All-Star form (and health, obviously) soon.

It's an ok card, but I feel the O-Pee-Chee Premier crest is a bit too big, hiding too much of the player. It's really too bad, because he has a neat up-close pose and is sporting the assistant captain's A.
