Jacques Plante, one of the greatest goalies to ever strap on the pads, played 18 years and 837 games in the NHL. The last 8 of those games with the Boston Bruins at the end of the '72/73 season.
Neither OPC nor Topps decided to make a card of Jacques in their '73/74 sets. So I did.
Three hours later, and my eyes are bleeding, but there it is. Jacques went 7-1 for Boston with a 2.00 GAA. After the season he jumped ship to the WHA to play one last season before retiring.

Nice!
Awesome job!
Awesome!
It's a shame that card doesn't exist.
Great looking card.
If you are looking for Plante in a BOS jersey from a card company, try 04-05 ITG Franchises (East?).
Quick eBay search will find it for you if the link doesn't work:
