Halloween Post: The Creepy Cards

           Happy Halloween folks! This is a bit late, yes but I was busy during the weekend. In honour of this holiday, I've gathered the top 10 scariest cards in my entire collection. These range from sinister to maniacal, to just plain creepy. Would you have thought Bryan Little could scare you? Neither did I. Until now...MUAHAHA!!!
(Sorry about the black border around everything)

#10 - 95-96 Upper Deck Craig Billington

Gosh, if it wasn't for the Bruins' logo, I could've sworn this was Patrick Roy. Man, if I was a shooter, I would freak out if I saw those eyes staring at me through the mask.

#9 - 10-11 Upper Deck John Tavares

Looking at this card does not make me want to be a referee. If I had to stare into that face all the time, I would look away and pray he doesn't get me. With those tilted eyebrows and that piercing stare, you can see why Tavares scares goalies all over the league.

#8 - 08-09 Upper Deck Ovation Viktor Kozlov

Trust me, it looks way creepier in person. With wavy eyebrows and a smile that seems toothless, Kozlov really gets me here. 

#7 - 90-91 Upper Deck Gino Odjick

He may be a fan favourite in Vancouver, but I don't think he would be if he showed this face all the time. The Islanders player looks like he's trying to escape this creepy guy, but Gino won't let him, hooking him back.

#6 - 91-92 Pro Set HHOF Joe Malone

Honestly, Phantom Joe looks no different in any other picture, so the impression I have of  his being a creepy hockey player waiting in the alleys of Montreal is probably totally wrong. This solitary pose is very haunting, with his deep eyebrows and unblinking stare, and it's the only Malone card I have, so it had to be on this list.

#5 - 11-12 Upper Deck Ryan Getzlaf

Ok, seriously, this body position is just disturbing.

#4 - 10-11 Upper Deck Bryan Little

HE'S COMING FOR ME!!! In this pose Bryan seriously looks like some primordial beast closing in for the kill. He looks perfect next to...

#3 - 90-91 Upper Deck Rod Brind'Amour

Like I said, Little and Brind'Amour are like two peas in a pod. Or maybe two insanely scary charging carnivores in a pack.

#2 - 2013 Upper Deck Team Canada Colby Armstrong

This could be Little or Brind'Amour roaring in triumph after the kill. 

Similarities anyone?

#1 - 08-09 Upper Deck Ovation Rick Nash

This is not a bad scanning job. Rick's eyes actually look like that on the card. Pupil-less and angry. This is likely the work of the photo itself, but it sure looks creepy. Looks like he's swing his stick like he's about to cut someone's head off. How do we know that the end of the stick isn't actually a razor-sharp axe blade?

You've gotta feel for Jonathan Toews. He looks pretty freaked out.

Well that's it for the Halloween edition of A Blog of Hockey Cards! Thanks for reading, and look out for a Movember post!
