Insulting card back
It seems like every card I've ever had, the text on the back always tried their best to make every hockey player sound likea future hall of famer then I got this card in yesterday:
Now maybe it's just me but, it seems like Panini is saying "Garon won a cup with the Penquins and then two years later they shellacked him and Steve Mason."
Has anybody else had a similar experience with the text on the back of the card.

Would you prefer if they made the guy out to be a jabroni who is fortunate to even be in the NHL? Of course they're going to make the guy sound good.
Habs fan and collector! Current PC's: Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, and Lane Hutson...., and of course...

That's pretty hilarious actually. What I find even better is when the card is of some loser and they make him sound like God. Got any cards to share that do that?

Must have been an uneventful season, or career, for Garon if that's the best they can do.

While we're at it, let's not forget Steve Mason's cards wouldn't move much better these days.
In fact, given one game to win RIGHT NOW and those two options, I'd take Garon over Mason. Truth.

A lot of the Pinnacle backs are great reads, and correct me if i'm wrong, but the description on the back typically matches the card picture (if they are playing agianst dallas then dallas is pictured)

What set is that from? I kinda want one for my Jackets collection, haha...right now, I'd take him over Mason, too. Mase needs to get himself together next year!

Hopefully! He's struggled an awful lot in the two years since his spectacular season...Garon outperformed him this season.
