Some of the tougher high-numbers include the all-star cards at the end of the set. This one features HOF defenseman Pierre Pilote, who for a time was the best blueliner in the game. Over an eight-season stretch from 1959-60 through 1966-67, Pilote was 1st team all-star five times and 3-time 2nd team selection. For six straight seasons he was either runner-up or winner of the Norris Trophy, including three consecutive wins. In 1961 he would tie Gordie Howe for the lead in playoff scoring, the first time a defenseman would do so, as he led the 29-24-17 Black Hawks to an upset Stanley Cup championship. Graded 2.5 GD+ by SGC.
