Rejected Hockey Card: David Steckel

by Chris meet Alex on Jan 21, 2010 11:47 AM EST

I was thinking back to the Tampa Bay game and thought about how... unique... David Steckel's fighting stance was and it reminded me of something. So it prompted me to once again look back into my own "shoebox next to my desk" and dig up a Steckel card that never made it to print. (By the way, he may not win many fights but watch out for that first straight left... it's a doosey!)

hilarious. after you’re finished with the series, you’ll need to do a caps retrospective special set. maybe even a “limo scandal” line.

I sorta remember that part of the movie, but yes, I had a few of those fast-talking, pinch-voiced announcer, newsreels in my head as I wrote that.

So which hand is Stecks’ Tom O’Leary and which is the Jack Johnson?
