Case of Mistaken Identity (Jan & Jiri Hrdina)

Never actually realized that Jan Hrdina and Jiri Hrdina were in fact two separate players... The confusion stems from them both wearing number 38 for the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Jan Hrdina
2003-04 Upper Deck #147

One of my common duplicates from 2003-04 Upper Deck was Jan Hrdina... And since there's barely any action, it's among my least favorite cards.

Just noticed that part of my dislike for this card might be due to the green coloring that Upper Deck used for the Phoenix Coyotes in Series I, after the Coyotes had changed their uniform colors and logo to maroon and white.

The card back also has the original Coyotes logo. The design used for Series II features the updated Coyotes' logo and colors.
