Kris Versteeg


This card is from a set that I am calling "Inspire"--partially because it was inspired by a 1990s set design. Can anyone guess which one? But I'm also calling this series "Inspire" because hockey players are inspiring to many of us. It's a hard game to play, and yet many of the players are humble.

Kris Versteeg seems to be a friendly guy, but he does like to talk about himself. He's young, and I think he's still a bit overwhelmed with making it in the NHL. Here is a video from the 2009 Chicago Blackhawks Convention, where Versteeg talks about how he made it in the NHL.
