Card Features: Mickey Redmond and Rick MacLeish
These are the snipers... the Brett Hull and Steven Stamkos of the '70's. With better moustaches. Mickey was one helluva goal scorer, with 145 goals in the last three years. Unfortunately a back injury not long after this card came out ended his career waaaaay too early. MacLeish would play another 10 seasons ending with 104 career power play goals.Again, some interesting 'Western' teams. Philly, Pittsburgh, Atlanta....
This marks the last leader card to begin the set. Starting with card #7, we finally get into the individual players.
I always like seeing Redmond cards like this, they're all way before my time. It's too bad Mickey didn't get to play longer than he did, but at least the fans in Detroit still get to see him on the broadcasts on a regular basis.
