  • 1959-60 NHL (Strat Fan)
    • Source: back of schedule sheet that Strat Fan included with the card set. There has been an error made on the top of the 1959-60 hockey set which should be corrected. The error concerns the scoring chances listed after the skating rating, on the top left side of the card. Please make the following changes: Any player who did not score a short-handed goal (see the bottom of the player's card) should have a blank reading following his skating rating. Also, the following players should have the scoring chances (the number in parentheses following their skating ratings) changed as listed: Jerry Toppazzini (BOS) from 1-2 to 1. Moose Vasko (CHI) from 1-2 to 1. Dollard St. Laurent (CHI) from 1-2 to 1. Norm Ullman (DET) from 1-2 to 1. Bernie Geoffrion (MON) from 1-2 to 1. Jim Bartlett (NYR) from 1-2 to 1.
