I'm trying to find the ten best hits ever shown on hockey cards. I know the NHL and NHLPA don't allow fighting on hockey cards, but as far as I know there is no issue with bodychecks. Still, it's really hard to find many cards with good photos of players running each other over. So far I have just four worthy candidates.
#67 - 1980 U.S. Hockey Team Aggressive blocking - 1991 Impel U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame - Apparently running a guy over is also called "Aggressive blocking."
#79 - Steve Bernier - 07-08 Upper Deck
#149 - Dany Heatley - 07-08 Upper Deck
#520 - Rick Tabaracci - 90-91 Upper Deck - I think this one is my favourite right now.
Can anyone help me flesh out this list?

1991 Upper Deck Clint Malarchuk - http://shoeboxlegends.blogspot.com/2008/10/ridiculous-cards-clint-malarchuk.html
2007 Upper Deck #365 - Chris Drury - Not as funny as the Malarchuk card though...

I wrote part of my last blog based on your quest for a "great hits" card.
I also saw your cards for sale on the board.
Please contact me.

You need to check out the Enforcers Of Hockey insert set from 1994 Classic Hockey, numbered E1 through E10. The NHL/NHLPA might not allow fights on cards, but that didn't stop minor hockey.
Beauty!
here's one hockey card with a hit from ken morrow in the 1980 olympics;

There is a card of Peter Zezal and Rick Tocket hitting the same guy up against the glass when Zezel was in Philly. I'll try to find it for you.
