1989 Topps hockey card of former New York Islander star Pat LaFontaine, who played on the U.S. Olympic team in the 1984 Winter Games before joining the Islanders. He became an Islander just when the team’s championship dynasty of 4 straight Stanley Cup wins was coming to an end. LaFontaine has always been considered one of the best American born players to play in the NHL, and had a long, successful career with the Islanders and Buffalo Sabres. In the 1987 Stanley Cup playoffs, his goal in the fourth overtime period ended a game that was dubbed the “Easter Epic”, as the game against Washington started on a Saturday night and ended at 2 AM on Easter Sunday.
