Card Notes
Known for his fantastic desire and determination, he’s an extremely dedicated athlete. An Excellent team player for the Rangers, he spent time at Rod Gilbert’s Hockey School. Is one of the Rangers’ fastest skaters and has one of the league’s quickest wrist shots.
What I love about this Nick Fotiu hockey card is O-Pee-Chee’s refusal to acknowledge his two previous years in the World Hockey Association. Yet, they print his stats from his days in the lowly NAHL with Cape Cod.
Fotiu played for the New England Whalers in 1974-75 and 1975-76, appearing in 110 regular season and 20 playoff games.
Nick played 646 regular season and 38 Stanley Cup playoff games in the National Hockey League from 1976-77 to 1988-89 with the New York Rangers, Hartford Whalers, Calgary Flames, Philadelphia Flyers and Edmonton Oilers.
