Card of the Day: Ray Bourque 90-91 Upper Deck

This was one of my favorite cards back in the day.

90-91 Upper Deck broke the hockey card monopoly Topps/OPC had with this set. A clean, classy design on both the front and back made this issue a winner. Plus there was a picture on the back which was unheard of then, at least for hockey. The photography was brilliant, featuring many great action shots like the Bourque here hopping off the bench at the Boston Garden.

I love that set, some of the photos on the backs of the cards are actually better than the ones on the front!
