"Chainsaw and Hockey Mask" combines my love of the game with my twisted sense of humor.
A place for my own musings, observations and discoveries regarding the coolest game on earth...
The current focus is hockey cards, as well as random hockey-related cartoons, drawings, comics, trivia, or whatever the hell I feel like posting.
Been away from the hobby for a decade and a half, and find myself overwhelmed, trying to navigate the countless inserts and parallel sets.
Gradually trying to figure out what all this stuff is, and put it in some kind of order within my collection.
Every card has a picture... And every picture tells a story. Sometimes a card photo is just so bad that it's hilarious.
Good, bad... I like 'em all!
Researching hockey card sets, players, teams and history of hockey always leads me to unearth all kinds of interesting tidbits. I like to save this stuff for my own reference, and for anyone else who cares to peruse through it.

WTF Hockey Cards
I tend to observe unusual things on the occasional card. Some are obvious, others just happen to randomly catch my eye.
Cool Cards
Exactly that. Some of the most amazing hockey photographs ever imprinted onto cardboard.
Not sure how original this segment is, but it's always nice to take a moment to appreciate a great card.
Card Cameos
A player shows up on another player's card, either in the background, or involved in the play, teammate or an opponent. It's bound to happen due to the nature of the game, but it's especially noteworthy when:
-The same players make cameos on each others' cards
-A player shows up on multiple cards within a set
-A player appears on consecutive cards within a set.
